The Art of Roxy Gordon

Place Designs its Men
Ink on paper
Collection of Judy Gordon.
Inscription:
With shovels/bulldozers/explosives; with rocketships/refrigerators/elevators/computers/radio waves/horses/obsidian knives; with religious tracts/economic tracts/political tracts, Men assume they construct their Place. These Men assume wrongly. Men do not design their Place. Place, instead, designs its Men.
Roxy used this idea in an article he wrote for the Coleman Chronicle and Democrat Voice.
