Absurd rendering of many eyes
 
Do you ever feel like you are being watched? In our society, we are so existentially alone that it is easy to become paranoid. Imagining that everyone is out to get you is at least one way to construct a world in which you matter. Much scarier is a world in which no one is out to get you... Stylistically, this piece is a conglomeration of influences.. The colors come from Degas, the skull from O'Keeffe, the rest from Dada and Dali. Text: "your destiny is to merge with infinity"/"We must agree on what matter: kissing in public places, bacon sandwiches, disagreement, cutting-edge fashion, literature, generosity, water, a more equitable distribution of the world's resources, movies, music, freedom of thought, beauty, love." Part of the reason this piece is so absurd is to contrast the simple wisdom of the quote, which is from a zen calendar.
