Sarah Perry : A Brief Survey : All The Way Down

All The Way Down

All The Way Down, detail

Sarah Perry

I think about our quest for answers sometimes stranding us with our head in the clouds, dreaming of thunder and gods. Or pursuing the comfort of groupthink and ending up paving our way to hell with bibles. Then again, maybe I’m just celebrating Darwin’s 200th birthday…
If you look closely, you can see the Big Dipper embedded on the side of the Australopithecus africanus skull in copper with the north star on his forehead.
