"Human Nature" - wood box, glass, oil, acrylic, copper, paper, mylar, linocut. 6"x6"x12"

This is a voyeur-box. We want to look but only through the tiniest lens, through a peep-hole. A physical metaphor for the aspects of human nature that are denied , the dark and ugly. We look at these things as if they belong only to others and then only sparingly for fear of their existence in our own minds and emotions.
