Epictetus was a Greek Stoic philosopher. He was born a slave at Hierapolis, Phrygia and lived in Rome until his banishment, when he went to Nicopolis in northwestern Greece for the rest of his life. His teachings were written down and published by his pupil Arrian in his Discourses and Enchiridion.

- Goats just seem to know something we don't, and that's precisely what the artist conveys with his Chattel series, which he says engages our own feelings about the souls within other beings, human or otherwise. Month to month, the I Am Goat wall calendar will keep you company in a most quizzical way, and possibly make you question what it means to be human.
