I started this piece a long while ago and finished it a few months ago. It's funny how ideas you thought of years ago come back to you, this is one reason to always write down your ideas. What I wanted to do with the lips was to visually depict mis-communication. You begin with an intact pair of lips, just as you begin with a clear idea in your head that you want to send to another person. As the information comes off your lips distortions occurs. Through time, space, and through the structures of the other person's brain your initial idea changes. Sometimes this distortion causes a fight, sometimes sadness, and sometimes a false sense of security and hope. When you are listening to another the information you receive is like a fragmented warped version of the original copy, and you have to do your best to piece it together.
