The whereabouts of science in nature is known, as is the psychedelic within refined retinal perception. David Shaw, who has long had interests in the philosophical and chemical nature of consciousness, exploits what he sees and what he knows to blur and extend the relationship of the bough to its metallic brother. His use of the colorized reflectivity of holographic film moves heady contemplation of his objects back into the real time of the body and its organs of perception. If trees dream as humans do, then a tree might dream itself to be as a David Shaw sculpture is.
