The Suspension Bridge of Disbelief

CLICK HERE TO ZOOM IN ON DETAIL (2012) This piece is a blend of themes: suspending disbelief, burning bridges, River Styx, and doubt, mixed with provocative, imaginative, and real elements that tie death to life (and vice versa). As an undergrad I was once told by an art professor that I drew with the aggression of a man. It's time to redefine the gender of aggression. “I come to you in restless sleepWhere all your dreams turn bitter-sweetWith voodoo doll philosophiesAnd day-glo holy trinities The crooked raft that leaves the shoreFerries drunken souls aboardPilgrims march to CompestelaVisions of their saint in yellow All follow deep in tranceLost in a catatonic danceKnow no futureDamn the pastBlind, warm, ecstaticSafe at last..."-- Natalie Merchant, Thick As Thieves “The seeker after truth must, once in the course of his life, doubt everything, as far as is possible." -- René Descartes.
