Do you think that I would keep so persistently to my task, if I were not preparing - with a rather shaky hand - a labyrinth into which I can venture, in which I can move my discourse, opening up underground passages, forcing it to go far from itself, finding overhangs that reduce and deform its itinerary, in which I can lose myself and appear at last to eyes that I will never have to meet again. I am no doubt not the only one who writes in order to have no face. Do not ask who I am and do not ask me to remain the same.
Michel Foucault, Archaeology of knowledge, p. 17. (via fuckyeahexistentialism)

Nikola Tamindzic, Samantha Keely Smith, 2013 (top); Samantha Keely Smith, Shift, 2012 (bottom)
Last week I had the pleasure of shooting Samantha Keely Smith for a feature about her work in the upcoming issue of Installation magazine. Tumblr seems to have fallen head over heels in love with this amazing artist & painter over the past few months, as some 16,000 notes for this post testify.
So, meet the person behind these incredible paintings: Samantha Keely Smith.
