A decision illustrated

Artist: "It's a moral position"

External voice: Amoral position?

Artist: "No. A. Moral. Position."

External voice: So the Artist's golden forest is suddenly a moral guide? A light, a beacon in the ocean of restless greed and desire that the lost souls can use to keep them from the cliffs of self-destruction? But it does not speak, it has no analogy, its message is mute, deaf and blind.

Artist: "It is a symbol of a decision that was made, without the desire for an imposition of its content upon others."

External voice: If that was true then there would be no need to express it externally, you would have it as a personal truth and not require an image to "crown" it. No, there is ego in the Artist's production, whatever the motivation or excuse or rationale. There is always the ego searching, requesting adulation, and it employs many tricks to gain a foothold in another person's eminence. The Artist even says that it is only for the self, for no one else, that it is not worthy, but they are simply different words from the same motivation, to be seen, to be heard, to be applauded and made worthy.
