This was a piece that I was fortunate enough to have selected to be displayed in the Annual Juried Art Show at the Foster Art Gallery. I was inspired by the work of Joseph Kosuth. Kosuth sought to find the boundaries of what exactly was or wasn't art. He, like Duchamp, found that a simple declaration of "this is art" was oftentimes enough for the public. While at the university, I began to grow tired of being asked "what does your work mean or signify?" I don't believe that every work of art needs to have a purpose. With this work, I removed the viewer's ability to interpret or perceive the work of art the way that they wanted to. They are forced into reading what the work depicts with no room for misinterpretation.
