the other side Collection
There is always more to the story
I didn’t ask you what you knew
You didn’t ask me what I know
If you ask, I will tell you
It’s what we don’t
I asked myself but I still can’t see
Although the veil of dreams is fading
Ask yourself if you can hear
The whispers of the ghosts of hope
The other side is where we’ll see
What remains to be seen
The other side is where you’ll go
To find the place where the truth waits
– L.Kell
Pyramids are a symbol of secret and lost knowledge, of things unknown. Inverted pyramids are often referred to as a “creation sign”. The upper representing inspiration from the heavens and the lower rising up and reaching for the heavens.
The Other Side Collection has always been about shifting and dual realities. These pieces are as much about the seen as the unseen.
When the idea for the series began to take shape in the summer of 2019, much of the national conversation took place in individual echo chambers, nourished by tunnel vision and cultivating divisiveness. At the time, I wanted to say something about perceptions and adjacent realities. I wanted to create a reminder that things are not always what they appear on the surface and is there is always another side that remains unknown. There is always more to the story.
While the multifaceted structures continue to represent dualities we can only imagine, as we arrived in spring of 2020, I found that the meaning of the work shifted along with the radically changing times. Our core reality shifted in such a profound way that we can no longer see clearly to what the future holds. The new reality we seek remains unseen on the other side, for now.
