SUB-ART: SOMALIAN WOMAN WHO APPEARED ONE DAY IN MY COCOA CUP


Few are brave enough to cannibalise the trivia of their everyday lives to create cutting edge "micro-content" and "sub art." 

This masterpiece utilises a 
photograph of a freshly drunk cup of cocoa and a scratchy effect that I found on my computer image editing tools to create a "haunting" image of what appears to be a Somalian woman.

Since I have now forgotten how to do the scratchy effect -- and have also allowed the cup to be washed -- this unique work is effectively an impossible-to-reproduce relic of a lost creative process.

Next time it appears it will appear without the elucidation of its creation, thus magnifying its occult artistic power.
