….One prevailing Modernist concept of the artist and artistic work involves the conviction that art is first and foremost in the service of the artist's own expression. …Contemporary art …often plays the role of trickster, healer, or alchemist, helping us observe and consider our world, beliefs, and daily lives in fundamentally new ways. Artworks that sneak up on us and surprise us may be able to do so because they are in disguise…. Drawing Outside the Lines catalog copy
