Catalogue Note

“It has taken me a lifetime to get to this desire that I have of eliminating all of the pop-culture subject matter from my work and find a kind of emptiness. It is a personal interpretation of my favorite art movement: minimalism. I know the title is jarring, but for me it is really just about choosing to be in another place.” Rob Pruitt
