Failure


This was a piece I did for submission to 'Dowsing for Failure', which naturally, didn't get selected.  I also made the mistake of hanging it in my studio space at SFU, which obviously didn't help my practice - it's now in the pile of 'things to be burned'.



It included personal failures, and some research I did of Sartre & de Beauvoir's writings on Existentialism:



De Beauvoir was far wiser about the human condition than Sartre I think, and she had the discretion to publish her ideas after his death.  Discretion perhaps, or maybe she did it simply out of love.
