End of quote.
A printmaker friend and I were collaborating on a piece, going round and
round about this very topic, struggling about the "proper" approach to
what we were doing (I was taking the side of BEAUTY as opposed to
beauty). He finally screamed at me, "It doesn't have to be BEAUTIFUL to
be beautiful!" If that makes any sense.
I've never forgotten that exchange, because it tipped me over into
another direction entirely.
