Revelations II

"Every day, we are surrounded by ordinary objects which would, considered in another light, cease to be ordinary. This is the ultimate purpose of all art - to transcend the everyday and offer a new perspective for consideration. As an artist, I seek, specifically, to make you question your own reaction to my work. Do you think you know the subject matter? Do you think you know the medium? How can you know? Did I tell you? Was I lying? Are you sure? Does it matter?"
