Regina artist Robert Truszkowski’s The Conversationalist features hand-crafted illuminated channel letters spelling out two phrases: LOST CAUSE (a melancholic Beck song), and MORAL HAZARD (describing economic risks taken because another party will incur any losses), and a mathematical equation representing the uncertainty principle (describing the limits of scientific precision). Together, they suggest the need to reconcile oneself to the unknown
