The calling card of modern and contemporary art, along with shock-seeking, is that it exposes its own systems of meaning and context. The preference of contemporary art, both of the artist and viewer, is for the viewer to discover, or even create, the significance of the art itself rather than falling into tired assumptions.

By choice, I chose to immerse myself in this work without having read the available texts and artist's biographies (still much obliged "cheetah"), and I found it was more potent and playful when the work was allowed to wash over me unconstrained by context or explanation.

While a poetic fragment can make for some of the most challenging bits of interpretation imaginable, in this case, it quickly leads the viewer to understand the entire piece, as it brazenly presents its singular, fragmented and poetic perspective--which is a relief considering its overall density and scope.

The sparse and pithy nature of this piece, begs the viewer to contemplate both the deliberate and calculated blackness of each letter as well as the vaugueness and indetermination of the white space inbetween, telling the narrative of a word that exists as part of itself while accumulating the external at the same time.

The artist deconstructs the myriad concepts associated with the banality of the mundane word and transforms these innumerable ideas into situations that exist on a completely different plane of existence. Through this process, the work draws its audience to reflect on the meaning and value of what is unveiled at the core of the piece, skillfully integrating the disparate and seemingly divergent elements to facilitate communication.

awakeningartist's commitment to clarity over panache works is much appreciated in our age of abundance and frivolity, and his latest work comes across as a genuine and humble dedication to wanting and seeking the only question ever posed by any work of art. I look forward to piecing together awakeningartist's vision through his future forays in modern art.
