La Surréalité
Strange… weird… surreal—it’s difficult finding the right word to describe this moment in American life. Our collective well-being is fraught, baited by another cringe presidential election creeping in the jostle of days ahead. Which way will the tide turn? No matter; Halloween beckons—a moment of mischief and mystery. Life’s decadent ambiguities stretched into a fine beat - face or otherwise, pick your poison…

This is a story about shadow and light; black and white; good and evil—and the gray spaces we inhabit in between. As the surrealist poet Dorothea Tanning quips in "All Hallow’s Eve": “Sit tight, be perfect, swat the spies / Otherwise, / You and the werewolf: newlyweds.” Owoooo!
