Good morning, good morning.

That is an awesome jumper.

I have to say, I have to say.

Such an honour to be here.

Thank you so much.

I'm going to share some poems.

So, and specifically just for the purpose of this, just reading from the Caravaggio-esque.

inspired side of it.

And just before I get into it, I suppose, in thinking about some of these parallels and thinking of Caravaggio's work in life, there were three things I was really looking into.

So I was really driven with the idea of phrases, classic poems, and looking at an image and just going with where the image takes you.

really, really was, which I'm sure all of this we might talk about in a bit.

Another part was in relation to just the graces and the privilege that was offered to Caravaggio, which for me as a black man, I don't necessarily feel like I will be offered those graces.

And I suppose the third one, when thinking about...

Just thinking about the book in terms of how you can just take ownership of something in yourself when your own manners, your own mannerisms to a certain degree might change or not necessarily conforming to a type of behavior.

I was really interested into what that looks like.

So I'm going to share some work.

Yeah.

So in light of the crisis talk,

This poem about Hans is after two of his paintings, The Car Chops and The Gypsy Fortune Teller.

And in both paintings, there was shifty things happening with Hans.
