to say
Okay, I will be perfectly honest up front and say that I have never found artist’s statements particularly helpful.  It seems a lot of “my work” and “I feel” and “dualities” and “embodiments” ad infinitum.   I do, however, love stories about why something was made or what in their youth, perhaps, it is reminiscent of. 
 
So, here we go… 
“I feel my work embodies dualities”
