Working 2000

I find them quite irritating for what they are, but I needed to make a statement. I felt like I was drowning, and I needed to say something. I see almost a “confused intellect” – I don ’t see them as particularly aesthetic, but about working out my process... almost 20 years of working out... – SMW paraphrased by MH.
