​Eye is on the Eye of the Beholder
​

This ongoing painting/drawing series was influenced by a lecture by Francesco Sannino, the Italian theoretical physicist, which prompted me to ‘look at the looker’ and to think about the self in relation to the other. The works reflect upon the feeling of being as small to be unknowable to the ‘other’, or as small as to be unable to know the 'other'. 
~ የሆነው ነገር እርሱ የሚሆን ነው፥ የተደረገውም ነገር እርሱ የሚደረግ ነው፤ ከፀሐይም በታች አዲስ ነገር የለም። ~ መጽሐፈ መክብብ ምእራፍ 1
~The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.~  Ecclesiastes 1 King James Version
