robert egert: non omne frugem nunque arboram in agro reperire, pastel on paper drawing, january 2010
Tempera on paper, June 2010

Not everything can be found where you would expect it to be. This is problem of taxonomy as well as a social dilemma. From a taxonometric perspective, the act of categorization cannot be divorced from linguistics and prevalent social norms. Will you find the light bulbs with electrical supplies or housewares? Is Family Guy a stealth method of perverting the ethics of youth or an atavistic play on disenfranchised suburbanites?

When Bogdan first began his piece he was rigorous about staying within the confines of the exercise. But unfortunately in the dim light of the attic and with the crude tools at hand, the piece grew in size and as it did his creative path took him away from his intended direction. Instead of the formal demonstration that his professor was looking for to demonstrate his mastery of the curricula, he reverted to his oft-repeated theme while obsessively weighing himself on a bathroom scale.
