I think, in some ways, as artists, we seek to transcend the literal... the constraints of formal language. Whether we try to create something aesthetic, or something evocative... we attempt to create an experience beyond words. I realize that it might be a worn out cliche, but the recent solar eclipse, once again, reminded me (us), that there are primordial, non-verbal sensory experiences that are capable of eliciting awe beyond human existence. Too dramatic? Maybe. But I hope some of you were able to experience it, and are left not being able to describe or explain it to others. Savor it. You are part of the tribe now.
