What causes human’s to compete, to strive to win, to chase a ball? In a time where technology rules the world’s society I believe that this simple act of retrieving and achieving cannot be duplicated. Some say those who have the most talent succeed in the end, but I believe the contrary. For this simple act alone is based upon our instinctive nature as humans, and as living beings. As dogs pursue a distant thrown tennis ball, I see that instinctive nature dwelling within us too. Through the use of primitive shapes I create the physical and instinctive similarities that we share with animals and our early archaic selves.
