The Door to Romance
c. Michael St.Mark 2011

Artist’s comment on how the opportunity for romantic involvement at first promises escape from an expansively
mundane, grey life of solitude into one of snugly ensconsed security and colour… yet all too often at the price of
subsequent steely emotional/sexual entanglements, children commitments and binding legal complications that become
as stifling and painful to endure – or more so – than the lonely world left behind.

People are happier when they’re in pain – in fact that’s why they get married ”  – Lou Reed, from the New York album
