con-sciousness
con-sciousness - original artwork
The only respite is to revert to a level of consciousness below thought. Sex, alcohol, drugs, work, content. The insanity of the human mind is more dangerous with torture inflicted by your own thoughts.

Where does self begin when we are stripped back to our core? Beyond reflection is where this piece sits with me - somewhere where I recognise the distractions of the world and yet frequent back to these distractions. Distractions of self, distractions of life or maybe jumping off points for life to happen.
This piece is handmade, detailed over many, many hours with Lousy Ink, Sennelier ink, pens and acrylic on Arches watercolour paper, framed by Frames Readymade on Lygon St, Brunswick East.
