Equivocal high priestess of Neo-Convulsive calligraphic automata, originator of the Enigma Scripts and their associated curiosa, scary femme-fatale Veronica Lurk personifies our erroneous zones – all our innate contradictions, aberrations and incongruities. Diva of Divergence and Digression, she is the very essence of everything gratuitous; everything anomalous and ambiguous; everything anachronistic, fortuitous, ‘off-centre’ and ‘off-the-wall’. Ms Lurk is the reification of singularity – even naked singularity. She is the Princess of Parody and the Patron Saint of Pastiche. As a familiar spirit of deviance and asymmetry, that irregular element always in the background, she embodies the consequences of indeterminacy, encapsulating the absurd in all its mutable, mutating, multifarious improbabilities. Known in Jet City as the Compulsive Beautician, Veronica Lurk is always extraneous – and completely unpredictable!
