WE
ARE ALL
GOING
TO DIE


26th August – 30th September
 
Introduction
Is the future sterile? I am seated in an office, surrounded by heads and bodies. A thousand remnants small.  Like putting a lid on a display case, attaching extras couldn’t conclude the weird thing: Jesus is in my Pop-Tart. Don’t get too big for your loafers.
It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; But on that account we shall be more attached to one another. I will meet you in the meadow and it shall be as though no time has passed.
When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench I can always hear them talking. There was nothing about the way the day started to suggest such a huge thing was about to happen.
If I could even put a daub of paint on a piece of paper, I could call myself a painter and get on with my day. This probably won’t help.
