    • Philosophy on traditionalism

 

The project itself

  • Material description, installation

    • Parallel universes of imagery
    • Contemporary, ancient
    • Death, life
    • Examination of self
      • Self-reflection
      • Within the context of others, culture
      • Examining others

 

Contemporary Context

  • Why my work is relevant, with its ancient references, to contemporary society and art

  • The future of traditionalism
    • My own painting career
      • Continuation of this theme/broader idea
    • Culturally, socially
