Art is entirely about "make" and only partly about "tell."

Mostly, the aim is to befuddle communication with ambiguity and paradox.

Art is about "make," but what the artist uses to make the work is always unlike what the work shows. Ambiguity and paradox arises from the incongruity of the materials and the results. A naked woman of steel? A flat face? A 12" giant? Wings of marble?
