Childlike is a much smaller series of work with installations. There are a handful of sayings that high school seniors are told when going to college about how they are starting a brand new chapter of their lives. In college most of them are living on their own and having to fend for themselves and ultimately start growing up.
I believe that growing up, does not mean leaving behind your childhood. The blanket forts that I built around campus are in relation to my own, and possible many other peoples childhood memories. It is important to keep a bit of that childish wonder with you as you grow up as a way continue to find excitement in the world much like children do.
