Tolerance of Uncertainty

Or
Tolerating Uncertainty


It is not doubt, but certainty, that leads to madness.

(it was that there Nietzsche fellow that said that, he did)

As a title. How about it?

I think this title has some potential. It allows us to do all sorts of different things. We can play visual tricks with the viewer to activate uncertainty; we can embrace it as part of our working process, allowing for risk and chance to direct the visual nature of our artwork; we can be hesitant, reluctant, careful; we can make it political and accept uncertainty as a healthy frame of mind that keeps hearts open to new ideas; or we can explore our own emotional uncertainties. We can do all sorts of things with it because we are very clever and creative people.

Just an idea. I look forward to talking about some other ideas tonight! Apologies for missing the meeting yesterday. I am silly.
