Xxavier Edward Carter

There are twelve conventional literary archetypes: Innocent, Everyman, Hero, Outlaw, Explorer, Creator, Ruler,
Magician, Lover, Caregiver, Jester, and Sage. There are a dozen astrological signs, each with their own sets of
strengths and weaknesses, and there are about 150 diagnoses in the DSM. Such categories are set out to cage
the individual by defining them with a slate of false boundaries. We adopt definitions for ourselves and for others,
and then we act in accordance with them. You can be, I would argue, whatever you want, whenever you want.
The work in this exhibition posits an alternative pattern for what is possible.With figures and forms that float in
and out of the picture plane, it denies immediate legibility, champions close looking, and pushes the boundaries
of selfhood. The vision is an omniversial one, in which the individual is a chimeric mash up of endless possibility.
Influences come and go throughout: gaming culture, fantasy, reality, Surrealism, Deconstructionism, Modernism,
theocracy, and more. Here, artists create a future in which we can meld with our dreams—let us be tricksters; let
us be architects of desire; part human and part unknown. Here, we are stepping away from the baseness of
rigidity with its undue suffering and moving towards a constellation of potentialities. How many possible endings
can there be, and how many beginnings?
