4 days, 5 crazy men

Hegel... Kierkegaard... Hiedegger... Derrida... Deleuze...
intensives are a bad way to do philosophy- especially existentialist and postmodern philosophies. 8 hours a day, monday through thursday= mental overload and existential despair. this kind of abuse makes me want to dissociate in unhealthy ways- hopefully i'll stumble upon pure being.

la llorona

"la llorona" (the weeping woman) is a mexican folk legend- a ghost woman who clings to this world mourning the death of her children. this is a reinterpretation of the story. here the woman has become a ghost because of the life of her children. she is mourning her own death- a death required of her in her desire to birth and raise her young.



this is also a collaborative piece, my son helped scribble in much of the chaos in the background.
