Who Are You?

spiritual, space, transcendental, metaphysical, quantum
Who are you?

Standing in the midst of all this thought-traffic?
Are you made of water and time?
Or rather, of salt and timelessness?
I remember meeting you a countless and one years ago
On the shores where the Universe was born.
All questions were to disappear
Morphing into the clarity of a new dawn.

Imperfectly Crafted

Perhaps you feared
You.
You
In me
With me
Through me
Around me
Caught up in our
Forever.
So
You
Banished
All memories of
Us
Into an exile of
Parallel realities
Where no
Future is
Safe or
Possible.
Yet
The present of our
Past
Bleeds through
These imperfectly crafted
Dimensions
Reminding
You
Of our
Unavoidability.

On Belonging and Critical Thinking

Lately, I’ve been thinking about the tension between critical thinking and the desire to be accepted and belong.

To them, avoiding standing alone at all costs often overrules the damaging impact social pressure can have on the ability to perceive clearly and think objectively. Neil Postman, one of the most eloquent media theorists and a cultural critics of the 20th century, claimed that every technological innovation has its own agenda. Once we adopt the new invention, we become (mostly without realizing it!) part of its manner of dictating the rules of reality. The same, I believe, holds true for any system, culture, tradition, community, country and policy, when embraced in a blind and desperate rush. In order to benefit from it, we’re required to comply with its postulates. In order to be accepted, we’re often asked to leave out most of what makes us “us”…

What do artists actually do?

I've not written much lately as I was busy completing a series of paintings and corresponding with galleries. During the pleasant busyness of the process, it occurred to me that I wanted to write a few words about what I feel is that artists actually do. Here is a little impression of my insights, written at once without editing or censoring. It felt good to share it.

Can you imagine a world without art? Without colors, paintings, sculptures, architecture...?A grey minimalistic world that would not tolerate variety or abundance? How strange it would be if everyone were focused solely on producing objects of  'practical' value, without a sense of aesthetics or thinking about design. I wonder if innovation would be possible in such a rigid reality. Or whether one would have the drive and the imagination to think foward, to think exponentially, making unexpected leaps and connections between concepts.
