Unidentified Notes

I wrote this in my notebook and don't remember where I got it from:

"They come for the shock value (freak show) but they stay because there's more to it than they expected."

I think this applies to my work a lot. I think a lot of what I make has an initial shock value but thats not exactly why I make it. I like people to be initially interested maybe for that reason, but then be surprised that the idea behind the piece is actually well thought out and more than existed at first look. This causes me to over think a lot of my work but I think I am generally happy with the meticulous way I do my work.
