No Wisdom For The Wiser

A self portrait. I wanted to capture my conflict between the stressness and comforts one can experience living in a big city contra the calm tranquility nature offers whilst still appearing somewhat desolate. Words in my younger days generated those thoughts but somewhere along the absurd process of graduating from collage they got lost. Hence the engraved caption: “I had to grow older to understand what I had heard. I had to forget. So that I could remember.”
