Sometimes we don't even want to change anything. We'd just like to return for five minutes and experience something again while knowing how much it would someday mean to us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DeLorean makes that impossible desire feel almost reachable. Get the machine moving fast enough, choose a date, and suddenly the past isn't gone anymore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis painting imagines that machine lost in time. The doors are open, but the engine wont start anymore. The destination can still be entered, but there is no way to get there. For perhaps the first time, the only direction left is forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaybe that's where most of us eventually have to arrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe past can teach us. We can apologize for it, forgive it, learn from it, and carry pieces of it with us... but we can't live there. If we spend our lives wishing we could rewrite everything that hurt us, we may overlook the uncomfortable truth that those experiences also helped create the person standing here now. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaybe we don't need a time machine. Maybe we need to make peace with the fact that we don't have one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike many of the paintings in my Abandoned Collection, this piece allows time to reach something that our memories have always kept preserved. There's a strange contradiction in watching time finally destroy a machine that once seemed capable of defeating it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEventually, even the time machine becomes part of the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe can't go back... but as long as we're here, we still get to let the pass guide us forward into the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Abandoned Time Machine is an independent artistic interpretation inspired by the DeLoren time machine form Back to the Future and is not affiliated, sponsored by, or endorsed by Universal Pictures, Back to the Future, or its respective rights holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI created this series to reconnect with my inner child.
