New York City, 2024

The city! The city! The citadel! Hair loss and cosmic derailment. Step right up folks and get lost in my three part drawing exploring— exploring....? exploring.

Is the city just a clump of tangled hair that fell off the head of another cosmic trainwreck? Would you feel less alone if we talked about it? Maybe we should take up a new language and connect to beings from this realm and the next. Does anyone know the difference between milk, cream and half and half??

How else, if not conjuring ghosts, gods and tricksters, will we ever be able to talk to each other? I'm asking for a friend
