(The Approach)

Belief changes the value of things.

Images construct identities. Language shapes perception. Relationships establish recognition, authority, and value. These processes extend well beyond art and commerce, through philosophy, politics, science, technology, law, finance, and property development.

(Valuation)

Everything has a method.

Research, naming, positioning, photography, film, design, publishing, and distribution give paintings a public identity. The same methods operate in art, commerce, and other fields. Images circulate, relationships form, ownership changes, and value is established.

What, exactly, is being valued?

(How We See)

Nothing exists alone.

A painting becomes an image. An image becomes a campaign. A campaign produces recognition. Recognition changes value. Ownership changes the composition. The painting continues through every form it takes.

Where does the work end and its value begin?

(Invitation)

Someone has to believe it.
