STATEMENT

This is an exploration of turbulence as a physical phenomenon and as a metaphor to refer to complex situations in our daily existence. Much of the physical world is shaped by moving flows, such as oceans, rivers, wind, and forest fires. When turbulence manifests in our daily existence, life becomes an ocean upon which we can easily flounder. What is the relationship between turbulence and the everyday? Can turbulence be a force capable of completely transforming or destroying everything it touches? Are some things better understood when they are broken? Is being alive another state of turbulence?
