Vision
For the past several years Baxter's creative work can be described as the exploration of spatial intelligence and the metaphysical nature of introspection. It’s important to ask questions like “What is out there?” And “What is it like?” These questions help define our existence and hope to understand our potential through inter connections that define our actions. All actions are distinct and yet empirically linked to a multitude of others defining a space, spaces within spaces, and spaces within a volume(s). New experiences are built from our actions within space and form and new associations are created once time and movement are introduced strengthening the perpetual layering of spaces within volumes. The interpretations differ from each person as they draw from their personal intellect, encouraging an insight in the relationship between form and thought.Practically applied; any issue can be better understood through interactions and it’s components offering more opportunity to alter and guide particular outcomes.
