The We Paintings

The Human Condition is one that continues and continues. The Human Condition is a manifest destiny: we are the kings of all we see, we are the queens of all we need. Yet, we know what the Human Condition’s fate is. We know, we understand but we do not accept or agree because out there in the future is not here and now. And the Human Condition has always been the struggle with the here and now. Here and now, not yesterday or tomorrow.
