  "Forman's work is about the journey-his, theirs, 

 ours. It is about transparent shadows of the real world,

shifting as we shift, fortelling our own ephemerality even as

they document us for posterity, playing tricks on our vision

like Puck, like the trickster spirits of every culture. It is about surface, but also about deeper layers and juxtapositions-of thread, form, subject matter, symbol and meaning. Robert Forman is a remarkable artist and a powerful trickster, who knows that the external world is a surface to be penetrated

to explore the many planes of existence."
