PAPER: The Paradox of Fetishism and Pornography: The Grotesque and its Diversion and Invitation of the Gaze, by Kathryn Sibiski
"Absinthe is to all other drinks what Aubrey’s drawings are to other pictures; it stands alone; it is like nothing else; it shimmers like southern twilight in opalescent colouring; it has about it the seduction of strange sins. It is stronger than any other spirit and brings out the subconscious in man. It is just like your drawings, Aubrey; it gets on one’s nerves and is cruel. " Oscar Wilde (Weintraub, 62)
