Pieces of old books frequently show up in the art of
Andre Monet, often in the background of portraits,
since he believes that every face tells a story. Similarly,
this piece takes its inspiration from books, specifically
memoirs, as they tell life stories and are the record
keepers for the many moments that fill the corners
of the mind. As in visual art, the stories that a person
chooses to put to paper are immortalized. The mind
may go, and the person eventually goes too, but the
memories remain. They are the legacy.
