The visual & the poetic.

Category: collage

When it happens you will know.

You navigate the sacred & you navigate the profane.

You navigate transient & symbolic worlds.

You navigate the fire extinguishers of culture.

You navigate the hypnotizing sucrose of media.

You navigate the razzle-dazzle of illusion in a surrealistic

disordering of the senses.

You navigate translucent nourishment within

the blood & dreams of your ancestors.

In all of this you are certain.

When it happens you will know.

You are surrounded by shadows.

Shadows lead to this moment.

A moment determining the future.

In nourishment you navigate.

In navigation you are nourished.

In all of this you are certain.

When it happens you will know.

Not the plan

The plan yesterday did not include making these. However…

Water-soluble graphite crayon & acrylic paint on tracing paper

+ water-soluble oil paint on cardboard

= collage,

each collage 9″ X 12″ – I will fold these, later, maybe after more collage

into an ongoing visual art ‘book’ project.

Distressed cardboard – scored and scraped while the paint is wet. I see a shape to develop.
