The calm voice returns overhead, “Welcome Six, you are one of the last survivors of the apocalypse.

and I worked our way through the Denver Art Museum’s North building, a piece that made an impression on us both was Gregg Deal’s acrylic painting on wood panel, Defiant to Your Gods 2015.

He once castigate Oedipus’ blindness “I say you see and still are blind—appallingly: Blind to your origins and to a union in your house. Yes, ask yourself where you are from?
