Glass Block 7 Enter Here Please


Glass Block 7 Enter Here Please Digital Art.

Glass Block. The glass block is my visual metaphor for the veil of lies. The veil of collectively agreed upon premises that blind each of us in our own regionalism and nationalism to greater universal truths. These collectively agreed upon premises about right and wrong etc., can blind us and bind us to ideas about what is real. And in doing so, form our individual constructs out of which our reality is shaped. All of which can easily be based on self serving half truths from the individual perspective all the way up to the regional and national consciousness.

"A work of Art is a small fragment from the eternal stream of the Creative Spirit which springs forth into existence through the persistence and focused thought of the Artist." "Art is the lie that unveils the truth, revealing it, making it more clear, and gives truth it's substance. Robert James Kelly
