This work is an inside joke. To any observer, it would appear that the sketched face is what I identify with but this would be incorrect. I often cannot recognise my own face which has been glued onto the surface of this work in the same way I relate to it sometimes - superficially - while the rest of the work I feel is more 'me,' more 'I.' But that too, in just the fleeting moment of creating it, just one corner of the expanse that is within me, that is within all of us.
