Artist Statement
The UUUUU is a series of relations and negotiation.
The UUUUU are sequence of exchanges between parties across invisible boundaries.
Each U sets a fixed position that both does, and does not, align with the next U.
The negotiation and magnetic exchange of one U to the other U across uncertain boundaries is the calling of Law and the pursuit of Justice.The U in negotiation seeking balance and justice on a reciprocal scale of equality across two sides is the calling of the judge, the jury, and the aspiration of the legal student.The UUUUU series can be read as a portrait of the highest calling of law and civil human exchange.
