    In this painting some naked people and a blue dog are caught in a maelstrom. An image of life itself, such as we should see it if should wake up and open our eyes just a bit too much.

      when you say 'an image of life itself, such as we should see it if should wake up and open our eyes' is this a reference to the golden spiral? or reality being percieved through the subconcious mind? some know this as the 'third eye' or any form of meditation witch explores the truth of reality through the subconious mind??
  • Posted by: Max Magnus 2006-06-12
      That's one explanation, another is that if we widen our consciousness enough to see what is actually going on around us we might find that we are living in a constant maelstrom of destruction, and we do best to find a nice wave in it to surf. Both explanations of course overlap somewhat and thus hold different parts of the as always multi-dimensional truth.

      Very interesting -- I find your art to be very thought provoking, witch i feel is probably the most important characterisitic in art, at least in 2006, in this time of over flowing, creativity raping, brainwashing propaganda being fed to us though tv, music, anything really. I like what you said about multi demensional 'truth'. i think truth is like love -- its everywhere, its endless, and in can be found in as many was as one's thoughts can interpret. Your art leave's much to intrepreation, and thats also another characteristic in it I appriciate.

      Truth is often rather black and white, A indeed equals A, but since truth is multi-dimensional it will sometimes look different depending on which angle it is viewed from. Spoken and written language is linear, and often lacks the exactness you need to describe some "truths" - in a piece of art though, several dimensional threads can be incorporated at once, enabling us to get somewhat closer to this truth.

      Ah, beautiful interpritation of the dreams that lie beneath our eyes when we sleep.

      this is him:
      link

      as i denie technology pain-based and as nature is my friend: link

      perhaps the CIA should carry me to a lab where my brain opened and cables and reading what love is and what the power is the connection to avoid travels to other planets
      i do not want to fight against life
      i told to the animals truthfully that i accept them to control for the good of this ilusion called life

      about being male or fem? is just a variable
      being smart or dumb? is just a random thing

      as a programmer i am bored if life a game i do not want to play and want to become a rock

    It seems like you got to descend to the far side of hell and back in order to be complete as human. What kind of eventual god demands that?
