Forward Places How does one move forward within a circle? Forward Places explores the paradox of progress within repetition, where movement carries us both toward and away from our origin, suggesting that meaning is shaped as much by presentation as by truth.

Inviting viewers to question whether we are truly advancing or simply circling familiar ground, suggesting that meaning itself is shaped not by fixed truths, but by the ways in which they are presented.
ABOUT THE ART
How does one move forward within a circle?
If progress takes us in any direction, it simultaneously moves us closer to and further away from its starting point. Never nearer, but always … forward. Time is linear for us that way: the present is suddenly a memory. The spaces we share within this conundrum become the products we consume every day. Their appearances morph over moments from a multitude of factors. Components we directly control, and we indirectly relinquish. An equal balance of management and chaos.
I create artwork that prompts me to think through paradoxes of enlightenment and foolishness, facades of expertise, gaps of mishaps, and the illusion in the modern human condition.
LANDON PERKINS
As I survey my everyday, I find myself in the mundanity of life, wandering these spaces among known and unknown; finding the gaps in between and questioning possibilities. Across a variety of media, I create artwork that prompts me to think through paradoxes of enlightenment and foolishness, facades of expertise, gaps of mishaps, and the illusion in the modern human condition.
I wonder if we have moved forward? Or, are we still in the same place? Witnesses merely to time and its steady erosion of these environments and our bodies and ideas within. It must then be as my mother always taught me growing up: that regardless of fact or fiction … “It’s all in the presentation.”
