Comment on the artwork:
White lies are considered innocent, but I have never liked this definition.
Lies are never white and pure as snow nor are they innocent, but we all tell lies!
Lies arise from fear, shame, insecurity or they are a means to an end.
Thinking that we never tell lies is a self-righteous pretence, and it is horrid to find out that our life is based on lies. They are tools used by man and society and they should be governed with common sense and responsibility. Lying is an essential experience to become a “good boy”!
