This is my copy of AFU, I picked it up at the Virgin Megastore in London, back in 1997. I gave it as a gift in 2006 to a wayward friend, a talented musician/junkie that got kicked out of his apartment and loss all his stuff in the process, then in 2017 I find this same copy on a table for sale in Bushwick....

A BEAST UNBONED!
The moment I was approached to create this artwork, what flashed to my mind’s eye was The painting, Hide-and-Seek, by Pavel Tchelitchew, which is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art here in New York City. Using that painting as a starting place for the composition, I began.
I work completely intuitively, first impulse, the first image, color, sound, connection, word, spark, that world will not fall apart in two days, no Philipkdicking around here. I see it in my head the whole total sum, that is always the pebble that the temple is built upon.
What is a Feast Unknown, except the game of hide and seek taken to an apocalyptic scale. What is this moment in the middle of the book, transformed, unfolded and idealized, to the absurd as Farmer reached in the Text. The book has become the holy bible of some future civilization, Always the same but different, always the union of opposites, the fusion of Technopois and Exotica.
Working digitally twice to scale with layers upon layers of digital drawing, actual painting, collage, three-dimensional rendering, actual photographic printing, real scissors and glue collage with my hands with rubber cement and piles and piles of color laser prints…
What is it to make an image? If not a game of hide and seek what was I seeking to create a penultimate invocation of my absolute favorite book of all time. Throw everything and the Kitchen Sink at it.
My intention, is to create images that have a life, veracity all upon themselves, cause I am always, always thinking about this quote:
"Those who create images of life, would be punished on the Day of Resurrection and it would be said to them: Breathe soul into what you have created. When they fail they will be thrown into the abyss." - Sahih al-Bukhari
