Banner art: Bob Finds Himself in a World for Which He Has No Understanding by David Lynch, 2000.

I'm trying to find a wee bit of understanding through art. Still boggled though.

When the cat is plotting to kill you and the dog is trying to warn you... We see a sinister cat face, with a pleading doggie behind the cat

This image is a photograph titled Evidence of a Man on Fire, part of the seminal 1977 art book Evidence by American artists Larry Sultan and Mike Mandel.

The book was the culmination of a two-year search through the archives of 77 government agencies, educational institutions and corporations.
We see a man in a laboratory, hands on hips, plastic bag over his head that someone is holding a lighted torch against.

The photographer was lying on the ground trying to shoot a ceiling. We see the ceiling and in front of it are pigeons leaning over, looking concerned.

I self-published Chrome Cady in 2017. It was written for one person and apparently she didn’t see it. Or worse, she did.

It’s a memoir of our gang. So many of us physically moved on— I think Sammy’s in Washington state now and I’m 150 miles south; our old neighborhood is someone else’s now.
Chrome Cady by Jimbeaux Dean A Quote Woman on the Run On a baby blue background we see a bad rendition of a chromed woman. A piece of broccoli sits next to the author's name and a video camera with its red light on peers down from a corner.

Shipping on the Clyde
by John Atkinson Grimshaw
A moody evening painting of a wharf with masts lined up on the left and occasionally lighted building fronts curving along the right. A couple horse carriages are clopping over the wet cobblestone roadway between buildings and masts. People with umbrellas are silhouetted in the light from the buildings. A couple darker shapes of people move among the ships.

Emptiness Felt by Immigrants
by Bruno Catalano
We see a statue of a man carrying a suitcase. The midsection from chest to knees is missing from the statue, creating a giant hole and allowing us to see the harbor through him.

Blue Whispering Day
by Choy Moo Kheong, 2022
A painting dominated by blue bamboo rising across the midsection. A blue creek of the same tone winds out of the bamboo, with green grass and a couple very small people alongside. Topping the bamboo is a roof of foliage in a green that matches the grass, with a blue sky and cloud poking through.

Blown Away
by Penny Hardy
Standing in grass and set against a blue sky, we see a human form created from circular pieces that look like gears of various sizes. Now imagine a mighty wind is blowing her form out behind her, with strips and circles trailing in the wind.

Now that's a bike light
A man riding a bicycle down a road. There's a floor lamp attached to the bicycle, lighting his way.

Balancing Sculpture
by Jerzy Kedziora
We see a sculpture that looks like a tight rope walker, one foot on the wire and the other leg hanging below. She holds a balancing pole. The sculpture appears to have no midsection as we look right through to the mountains behind her.

Church pulpit, Poland, 17th century
Rising with a reptilian shape, the massive head forms a roof over the pulpit with the lower jaw as a "basket" that holds the preacher. We see a skinny reptile arm "holding" the "basket," which has a perimeter of lace. Oh I guess it's a fish-- there are fins on the tail rising from the floor. A fish with skinny arms.
