Yes, it’s a good day for singin’ a song,
And it’s a good day for movin’ along;
Yes, it’s a good day, how could anything go wrong,
A good day from mornin’ till night.
Yes, it’s a good day for shinin’ your shoes,
And it’s a good day for losin’ the blues;
Ev'rything to gain and nothin’ to lose,
‘Cause it’s a good day from mornin’ till night.
I said to the sun, “good mornin’, sun.
Rise and shine, today”
You know you’ve gotta get goin’
If you’re gonna make a showin’
And you know you’ve got the right of way
'Cause it’s a good day for payin’ your bills;
And it’s a good day for curin’ your ills,
So take a deep breath and throw away your pills;
'Cause it’s a good day from mornin’ till night.

My work isn’t really for looking at as that is not my intent. you are not looking at a image of these expressions as a voyeur but for a single moment you “are” these expressions. She is something you wear for just a second and become a part of ….and hopefully it reflects more about you in the wearing than it does about me.

⠀

I have always been fascinated with paintings related to Cythera, by the French painter Jean-Antoine Watteau; the Embarkation for Cythera, the Pilgrimage to Cythera, and Les Deux Cousines.  In the ancient world, Cythera, one of the Greek islands, was thought to be the birthplace of Venus, goddess of love.  The subject of Cythera may have been inspired to Watteau by certain 17th century operas or plays.  In Florent Carton Dancourt’s Les Trois Cousines (The Three Cousins), a girl dressed as a pilgrim steps out from the chorus line and invites the audience to join her on a voyage to the island, where everyone will meet their ideal partner.  I suppose in uncertain times I feel a call to those Arcadian places of peace and serenity, and it’s worth noting that some aspects of the models and figures in this piece were created in virtual reality using Oculus Quest 2, which is a first for me. The idea of escaping into a virtual environment is directly related to my obsession with dissociation and the paracosms of the stories I have built up in my mind over a lifetime. ~Ray Caesar

One of my many imagined anxieties is a form of agoraphobia, the fear of the outside world, and in my case, an overwhelming astonishment of how huge the sky is above my head. This compounded by my certain suspicious nature that gravity may prove to be a theory that is in fact unproven and fallible. 
Each day I force myself to put on my coat and shoes and hitch up my little rat terrier “Finnegan” in his vestments and venture out for what I call “My Daily Constitutional”. I think I first heard the term in the 1960s comedic movie “ The World of Henry Orient” with Peter Sellers.  As I have now watched that film hundreds of times as it reminds me of my childhood steeped in a dissociative world of my own making.
Every single day I stand in front of that door that leads to the outside world and as Finnegan gives me a little mental shove, we are off on one of our many daily constitutionals.  I let him guide the way as we walk through the now pandemically empty streets of University of Toronto and like him, I keep my head down and generally try to avoid looking up at that amazing, glorious and stunningly beautiful sky. ~Ray Caesar
