so, i just re-read my latest blog posting and wanted to remind myself of its genesis. it actually began with this photograph of primary colors and natural beauty. the title, apt as always, reminded me of hedwig’s musical prodigy “Tommy Gnosis”. I then simply reclaimed the name for my own ward, Tony. however, this didn’t leave me with anything to write about. so i continued looking at pictures and mused on the wonder of photography, and thought of this lovely exhibit of Edward Teske i had recently seen at the art institute of chicago. the images by this gay artist mesmerized me, and so i looked for some on the web. and found the one of the boy in the water. from there, water became my muse while its erotic potential remained my theme. and so Tony Gnosis.
