			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I try to figure out what types of projects I would or would not work on, Daniel Edwards&#8217; work always catches my attention. I&#8217;m interested in pop culture and portraits (or in his case liknesses) and I see his work as a path I could have taken. </p>
<p>I think it&#8217;s great what he does, though I don&#8217;t know that I agree with it. It makes me question what I think is an appropriate use of a celebrity&#8217;s image. It&#8217;s one of the reasons I&#8217;m glad I&#8217;m not famous because I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d like being one of his subjects. These celebrities are used to represent ideas, but they are people. Who&#8217;s rights or needs are more important, the society that uses celebrities &#8211; like societies once used the Gods of Greek Myths &#8211; to explain/represent aspirations/fears, or the people who are being used in this way? I used to think it was society, but now I think it&#8217;s the people. I think you should have to volunteer to be an idea or an ideal. </p>
<p>Anyway, here&#8217;s this dude sculpting this chick:</p>
