Quote by Rebecca F. Kuang

“...the fate of a storyteller. We become nodal points for the grotesque. We are the ones who say, “Look!” while everyone peeks through their eyes, unable to confront darkness in full force. We articulate what no one else can even parse. We give a name to the unthinkable.”

Form and color tell us of form and color – that is all. It often seems to me that art conceals the artist far more completely than it ever reveals him”
