Allan Teger

My job has always been to help people see the world differently. That was true when I was a psychology professor, when I directed counseling and advising programs, and true now, as an artist.

In this new series, "Counterpoint," we are presented with two objects that differ in important ways. This difference might be natural / man-made; soft / hard; or just very different in their looks or functions. The difference between the objects, the seemingly lack of any connection between the objects, presents us with a tension that we need to resolve. The resolution may be to see the tension between the objects as a thing in itself, or to see the meaning of the object change, as its original function no longer seems relevant.

It is my hope that such visual experiences will remind us that we have infinite choice on how we view the world. These choices have profound influences on what unfolds next. If we remember this, then every one of perceptual choices becomes a conscious act, rather than an automatic response, and we literally create the world with our consciousness.
