The dimension of mass is a more complete reality of form. With mass there is a broader sense of context that gives the object more weight and definition, more history and personality. With mass there is evidence of the image's material as it relates to how it is presented, and how it was created. In the state of mass an object can be perceived from multiple angles (as with shape), has an immediate context (as with form), and also has a clearly developing relationship with its environment and process. Whereas images in previous dimensions had plurality through perception, images in mass have plurality through experience. However, the development of these images are still only within their own process and existence.

In this website, mass refers to performances and exhibitions. Images are presented as having autonomous qualities and abilities. The intention of the work is inherent to the process of its creation and presentation, as well as the process of its development. Images relate to each other and with the environment but not necessarily to the artwork and contexts of other people.
