“Space Travel”, 24” x 57" x 1", acrylic on hand carved basswood

What does the word 'SPACE' mean?  It is such a common and comfortably used word.  Yet, is the SPACE between objects and our bodies the same as the SPACE between the molecules zooming around inside these objects?  Or, is the distance that extends to the ends of the universe equally deep in the microscopic realm?

And, how about the spirit?  Is there a place where the soul soars in unknown directions?

...what a wonderful mystery.  1998.
