From 2014 to 2024
During the month of May
Art along Chaleur Bay

“CAI has identified … it is not our aim to discuss the obvious ingredients for success for artists – such as patience, willpower, sacrifice, dedication, or discipline – but to identify and raise awareness when it comes to the unwritten rules of the art world”

Face & Frame – This is more or less a temporary name for my current art project. I’m finding it hard to decide because while it is about that it’s something more. I’ve been working at this since December 16, 2023 and hope to have a firm title before the end of May. I actually began this with the word “Incommensurability” and the idea of humans sandwiched somewhere between animals and computers.

During those first days of this project. I spent time just jotting down ideas, both my own and those I found while searching the net, not being careful enough, I realized later, in noting the sources of some of the quotes I found. The above quote is one example. Eventually I began to notice what I found to be a peculiar pattern. This was to have a significant influence on the artwork I am now making. During those early days in December I was planning an exhibit which would have been taking place this week. By April I realized that once again I lacked the resources that would be required. I decided to place my exhibit online. This would be as good a place as any.

Meanwhile I hope to continue documenting the process I went through before arriving at this point. I will also try to find the source of the above quote. It is now 8:37 pm Atlantic time Saturday May 11, 2024. It’s been a long day. I’ll try to be be back tomorrow.
