Start: My task here tonight is to unveil my semester’s work, explain it and then smile and shake hands, leaving a few of you to examine it, grade it, etc. in essence, be at your mercy. Which is fine, since I realize I have been my entire academic life-at someone’s mercy-that is-which reaches back to when I was five.

End: I follow in a long tradition of artists who believe that there is no such concept as religion, or government, community, or even family. There is only art. Art that must be created. Whatever the cost. With that in mind, I present you with my untitled sculpture and supporting materials tonight. Thank you.
