Knowledge. Human incomprehensible aptitude, even so, testable. Knowing is subjective because I know I know, but how do I know that what I know is true, or it is true to what others know. So, how do we know that we know? In a beginning, I looked for different answers to my questions. In the search, I found a sole aspect that has one answer, a math equation (IMG 2). I made some further research, investigated media and its impact on comprehension (IMG 6), and at the same time discovered the art from Rauschenberg, Roda, Warhol, and Óscar Muñoz.As I gathered information I noticed the level of complexity of my theme, covering from basic knowledge (IMG 1, 3, 12) like for instance going to the bathroom, following a map, drink milk to avoid your bones to break (IMG 5); all the way to things like old knowledge, past knowledge (IMG 10,13), and even my own knowledge. I even settled to draw a well-drawn face using my knowledge, of color, light, and composition. In the end, I concluded knowledge is intricate, yet something we live on a constant with.And my question continues. We don't know if what we know is true, but what we do know is that there is no simple truth.
