about

Sorry,

these are for me. They are about ignoring you/it/them all, ignoring the fourth wall in front and disappearing into the art. No address, no acknowledgment, no confrontation or truth telling; they are about breaking through the back wall just to get away from that

nonetheless, these are a scream. Though the melancholic, cyclonic wallowings are the content, the scream is only in their escape. A scream that must be onto deaf ears

this push and pull, the need to speak and not be heard, feels like a three-step (one forward and two back), a time bomb bottled up inside, waiting

until next time,

coward
