Eggs for me represent a life form, neither gender or species specific. This versatility, fragility of the shell, and beauty of it’s texture and color allows to combine the eggs with other objects and situations, with conflicting realities and of human feelings. An egg is nourishment, an object that almost everyone on earth is familiar with and knows what it is from an early age. What do you expect to happen when you drop an egg.

My father passed 20 years before my mother. Her demise was pause for reflecting on their lives and grandparents and ancestors that came before them. I always felt that I was a self-made man, but the courses of their lives had laid the foundation for what my lifecould become. With my mother's death came the realization that I am next in the queue. The fragments of the past lay the foundation of the future.
