The central focus of her art installation is the expression of her life at different times as seen in three of her major paintings with the same title, Time To Think. Heather Levy asks the viewer to reflect on her life process of becoming a woman, a wife and a mother. Her identity is part of a matrix of many ideas from Freud, Sartre, and Dostoevsky, existentialism, Rand and Rumi; and a matrix of family and home: boyfriend becoming husband, baby becoming her nine-year-old son, and always with sweet kittens, gardens full of zinnias, and games of chess and music. Levy collaborates with Kristin Williams in sound sculpture that explores what homes means to her aurally. And with Jean Land, she collaborates in two "exquisite corpse" paintings that ask the question, what is home? The installation invites you to join the collaboration with your participation in taking the time to think.
