Artists are visionaries. We routinely practice a form of faith, seeing clearly and moving toward a creative goal that shimmers in the distance - often visible to us, but invisible to those around us.
All that shimmers on the surface of the world, all that we call interesting, is the fruit of ignorance and inebriation.
Even coal shimmers in the light
We are all of us walking communities of bacteria. The world shimmers, a pointillist landscape made of tiny living beings.
