"Cumfucius" - Digital Collage, 2024
The artist procured, compiled, and arranged 40 c*mshot images into a portrait of Confucius.
The work evokes a frothing flow bursting forth, much as the ancient philosopher's ideas burst out of his head to ripple a big sticky mess across the Zhou dynasty and beyond.
At first glance, the work appears as a pixelated image of Confucius. However, as the viewer engages with the piece--pondering, zooming in, getting closer, right on the edge--an eruptive moment of realization occurs.
In this way, the viewer's experience of the work parallels the feeling of an actual c*mshot. Tension builds to a breaking point, the bliss of realization erupts, and only cold clarity remains. Importantly, this only occurs with sufficient time to ponder the work. Much like how Confucius took the time to ponder his ideas and philosophies.
