Exclusion

Untitled collage, mixed media collage, gouache, India ink. 9" x 12". 2011


Sitting on a wooden chair, outside in the midst of the mid-morning sun hanging above me, pondering and letting the cigarette pour out of my lips like a chimeney. Eyes drawn shut, thoughts of less important subjects cloud my mind. My hands begin to move on their own, foreign from the rest of my body. It is only that I begin to etch the unfamiliar faces that surround me. As a take a sip from my coffee, it drips onto the paper, running with the India ink. To say this was done unintentionally would be an exaggeration itself.
