Damien Gossett – I Chose Not to Answer

Description

Artist Statement

I have spent a years in the desert and years near water. There is enchantment. There is a brilliance to the light reflected in water that defines the dust which has accumulated in all places. It is hidden by dark revealed in moonlight. A family of coyotes emerges from the forest. Deer and fawn, skunks, possums and coyotes roam crowded city streets. They have taken up residence in our house. It is just as we have done the same to theirs.
A small part of them has stayed with me. My goal is to capture the colors, sound and environment of the singular space that is this time.
