Abstract: Andrew Wyman

    These ashtrays, outside of the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment building, gave me a lot to think about today. What pressures are these smokers are facing? Are these smokers unemployed and looking for work? Are they people who have been injured on the job and seeking workman’s compensation? Or, are they simply government workers employed at this building?
    I pass this building at least once a day. I pass by it oblivious to what’s happening in these people’s lives. I’m usually listening to music and concerned with my own worries of the day. If I were to step back and look at the world in an abstract way maybe I could help to make a real difference in the world.

"Tomorrow's life is too late. Live today."-Martial

Time is something intangible that is constantly slipping away from us. Whether it be school, work, or just simply life itself, I always find myself wishing time would just slow down for a split second to let me catch up. But since that won't happen, I think it is important for us to do things with the short amount of time we have that strengthen us as beings and make our passion for life grow with us. This composite of images symbolizes the meditation that we can find in our everyday routines. For me, snowboarding is my solace, the thing that makes me feel most alive. Due to the deadlines of real life, I wasn't able to do as much snowboarding this year as I would have liked, so I decided to make a composite of the peace and serenity that being on a chairlift, anticipating the next run brings me. It is important that we do not forget the good times in the middle of the stressful ones. Even if you are overloaded with things to do, make time to enjoy the beauty of life and live today.
