ARTIST TALK
Saturday 14 September 2pm
Sense is what we make. Common sense, good sense, bad sense, non-sense and no sense. It seems the world makes no sense. It seems the world makes sense.
You can interpret or read most of these works as narratives in fable form. Didactic and moralising from my side, like an idiot preaching to himself.
I’m trying to work out, what I’m trying to work out.
I feel like my work overall, is like a wall of “post it notes;” all over the place with string making, loose rambling thoughts and connections. Still trying to work out the same problem that I started with 30 years ago. All of this applied to a form of representational aesthetics.
The hope is the viewer gets to see an entertaining absurdist’s theatre. Trial and error. Sketches and excursions.
Imagine what heaven looks like now if everything we upload is uploaded there?
