I believe art can be 

magic—just like its 

original intentions so 

many millenniums ago. 

It gives me a means 

by which to attempt 

to grapple with many 

of the gray areas of 

my life. Questions that 

sometimes don’t have 

answers are sometimes 

the best questions we 

can ask of ourselves and, 

of the things that bring 

meaning into our daily 

lives both personally 

and as a society. I like to 

peek into the fuzzy areas 

where linear thought does 

not always hold rein.
