“We repeatedly create symbolic systems of meaning—religions, political ideologies, scientific theories—and then forget that they are our creations; we have a devilish habit of confusing them with the mysterious nonhuman reality they were meant to explain. We have constructed about ourselves (and within ourselves) an environment of symbols and cannot tell where symbol leaves off and nonhuman reality begins, cannot (as the general semanticists put it) tell the map from the territory.” – Walter Truett Anderson. The studio, and the work of art both serve as frames (windows) into the new realities. In this episode we take a look at constructivist notioins of reality and how they play themseleves out in the artist studio.
