Life Cycle-4 is an installation painting composed of four overlapping panels—Childhood, Midlife, Old Age, and Death—each marking a distinct stage in the arc of a human life. The text shifts from “WHEN I WAS A KID” to “AGE/RAGE” to “PEACE,” mirroring the emotional progression from innocence to volatility to acceptance. Each panel contains a F.O.L.P. (Figure of Limited Predictability) paint event, forming the connective thread across the work.
The final panel incorporates two embedded elements: a charcoal drawing preserved beneath Den Glass, and a built-in HDTV playing Life Cycle, a 131-minute looping performance. Together they create a layered finale—memory preserved beneath the surface, time repeating above it. Viewed as a single work, Life Cycle-4 becomes a slow-moving portrait of existence.
