BE NICE 

Project #301 Chelsea 2015

Be Nice, the Allegory of the Cave in Plato’s Republic: the play of light and shadow creates illusions in the mind, emerges from the cave into the light, allowing for truth. The work mimics the journey of existence embedded in primordial essence. Union brings life; love, the defining force; and the inevitability of death. Creation and destruction are a continuum. There are similar patterns that occur in molecular structure, in nature and in outer space, reflecting the relationship of the microcosm to the macrocosm, order in chaos, and individuality within universal consciousness.
