SUBJECT: TJ Norris
“What I am most interested in emerging in Spread Ego is a sense of letting go of my own image to a sense of trust, acceptance, perspective and gaze. In these works artists are fully allowed license to fill certain gaps, flaws included. As I age my body changes and things find settle and disruption. Spread Ego incites and embraces that change.” - TJ Norris
The discussion will begin promptly at 4pm.
