Deducible Fruit: November 2008

“…and we need images, we cannot live without our images, we need to be depicted or described or represented, and sometimes what we will be able to do best for a person is her portrait, minute, tireless, because it is not enough for us to have been born to be in possession of our existence, we want to be looked at, we want to enjoy our éclat, mother, tell me I am beautiful, give me the word that gives, sing me the legend of Me, make the éclat of my ugliness beam, the mystery of my blackness, offer me the anguish that pierced me, the wounds, the terrors, the assassinations, draw them on canvas with brilliant words, I want everything, even shame, provided that it be: me.” ~Helene Cixous
