2000 LADDER TO THE MOON

A drop of water that gets goose pimples at the very moment it comes into existence, fore fear of losing its original purity of form. Newness being the over-riding motive for invention, and this results in an eccentricity that draws the spectator into scandal. Involvement in scandal is in large part, enjoyment of the art. We survey our surroundings with apprehension and uncertainty. Limbo, mirrors what is by nature emotionally unstable. The future is already shaped by what has happened. Where we look and wonder at our own constant effort to survive by adapting to the conflicts of the present. How and why the present retains parts of the past.

Methods of exchange based on bartering products from nature. Art tries to visualize it’s own language. The intent is to create, within an area of great urban tention a special place available to all and under the protection of everyone, but where you come alone. A p-lace to sample the attractions of solitude. A place where people can step away from the community under the protection of the community. Metissage which preserve us perhaps from the imitations and intolerances that lie in wait. Cultural inter-related proceeds by breaks and ruptures as much as by symbiosis. It is by nature perhapsfractal: hence the feeling that ours is a CHAOS-WORLD.

Creolsation is metissage whose outcome is unpredictable.

416. White Raven

The first work takes gravity, as matters memory that it once was light. A trust, which is necessary if a work of art is to operate on any level deeper than banality, is an abiding significance that all successful art must carry.

418. THE THIN EDGE OF THE WEDGE

A wedge of space disrupts the right angle of the corner and seems to shift the line, irrational space, as the threshold of another dimension. There is a conflict between the moral worlds of science and art. The common ground of exploration for science and art is the human body.

419. THE INTERNAL CLOCK

The below painting deals with the Pineal Gland. A small pine-cone-shaped gland, near the roof of the third ventrical of the brain. The pineal gland produces melatonin which inhibits the tropic hormones that effect the ovaries, and it is thought to be involved in regulating the onset of puberty and the menstual cycle in women. The pineal gland receives and responds to sensory information from the optic nerves, it is sometimes called the third eye. The pineal gland uses information regarding light levels to adjust it’s output of melatonin.

Melatonin levels increase during the night and decrease during the day. This cyclic variation is thought to be an important time keeping mechanism of the body's internal clock.

420. PARADE DE CIRQUE

A Celtic sun-wheel sought to combine permeable and impermeable spaces, illuminating self contained atmospheres. The Sun as emblematic of icarian dissolution of the self to evoke the most personal of emotions, sensations and beliefs, manipulate the sacred and find an eschatological balance. A scathing assessment of revolutionary aspirations as essentially changing the content without modifying the basic structure. The inverted sacrifice thwarts the social purpose of ritual, unleashing disaster rather than confirming order at the limit of death.

421. AGENTS OF CHANGE

Simple monuments to being and the nothingness that forever brackets it. Speaks of basic human needs, the plights of individuals. Outré’ subject matter, pedophilic images as art merely reflects an external truth, made with regard to both linkage and contrasts of forms and intention. Diagonal sight line reinforced by the orthogonal in the background converging.

422. THE FOUR RIVERS OF EDEN

Painted from OVERTURE TO THE WASPS, A fluvial landscape, where objects flare and curve from the vertical plane of the wall to temper geometric closure with dynamic suggestions of asymptotes and vectors. Point of interest: Japanese researchers, who are working on a stamina-boosting drink, have taken from the saliva of giant killer hornets.
