this glowing neon door frame mounted on this white wall is not significant or special
it does not speak to social issues or spur political discussions
it will not call upon you to reflect on your life, your decisions, your mistakes
it is simply a vibrant structure buzzing from high voltage currents
again, don't read into it
it's exactly what it appears to be
SFMOMA, Dan Flavin
Some things are simply what they are. I find myself dissecting art and find myself always wondering what emotions or thoughts inspired work, but perhaps these thought patterns are wrong. To put it simply (and in cliche), it is what is.
