“To me, humanities is the study and expression of our most personal characters, and the societies we collectively compose. It sets out to unravel those ‘iron-strings’ that bind us, from our deepest primordial and primal urges to our uttermost intricate emotions and thoughts. The simple matter is that, as much as some – including I – would wish it to be, it is not a science that is learned, but rather an art that is experienced, both by the artist constructing the work and by the spectator absorbing its revelations – whatever they may be.”
