Title

“Three simple Facts, three confirmed and undeniable Facts - the immensity of the universe, the incomprehensibly vast history of the Earth, and our inescapable mortality - loom over all of us like three paisley mastodons.”

-Glen Berger: "Afterword," Underneath the Lintel

While these words may not be explicitly connected to the central theme of my piece, I chose to use Berger's words in my title as a affirmation that my work - and all art - can be reduced to these three simple facts. This title allows me to incorporate yet another impactful artwork into my own piece, and gives the piece a relevant air of mystery to an audience member who is unfamiliar with Glen Berger’s work. Because the piece unifies so many images, artists, and forms, it is necessary to keep the title abstract enough to incorporate all of these without becoming superfluous.
