Yesterday afternoon I spent an hour or so at the museum with Prince Charming.
This is the printed information about the current special exhibit.
The chief reason I made sure to see this exhibit before it ended was that I'd heard the words "found objects" in relation to Mr. Peters' art.
The installations were mostly quite large and three-dimensional...one occupied an entire room.
But there were a few pieces of wall art, and several of them were cut-paper works (which seemed to be representational of his larger works).
Those came in handy when I drew the day's Inchie:
If you've been reading my blog for any length of time, you can easily see how I might feel compelled to like any artist who cuts paper and uses found objects.
But it was this artist's statement on the back of the program that really made me love him.
Especially the portion I circled in red.
He has "given utterance to the truth that has been dumbly struggling within" me.
The truth about why I would share my found alphabet, or my produce sticker collection, or any number of other odd things with you.
I just want to be a speed bump in your percieved reality.
