About the book >.>.> Above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it."-Roald Dahl, "The Minpins' In the post-religious post-scientific age, truth remains illusive. The miracles of technology and invention replicate themselves like alien wights luring us down the pied piper's path, teasing us with their intelligence and mesmerizing trickery, while we secretly know we know nothing. Nothing, perhaps, is something. And the tantalizing desire to unravel the secrets of the universe, have led, (so the ancient stories foretold), to the opening of Pandora's Box. The codes to unlock the casket are loaded with suggestive symbols, patterns and rituals. With the misdirection of an illusionist distracting us from the Elephant, the artist teases our minds with the smoke and mirrors of the ancient mystics while reminding us of the uncomfortable truths in time and space.
