This thread keeps calling to me...

I couldn't resist.

Some contemporary works I am fond of...

Daniel Rozin's Mirrors - To see the full effect, watch the video in the link



Trash Mirror

Jenny Holzer's work with signage and her truisms...this is from her series Protect me from what I want



Sarah Sze's site specific work...here are Corner Plot (in NYC) and "The Art of Losing"





Claire Morgan's beautiful and delicate work...these are Water on the Brain and Cleaving

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Fernando Pessoa, 1918
