Intoxicated silhouette sits across the nun. The nun whose night lamp lights up the city of foreign goons.

The silhouette keeps obsessing over the curtains, the summer roses, the rosary, the sun of the body of spirit taking her afternoon stroll.

There is one poem after another written by the discarded poet describing the web of the silhouette and the knee of the nun.

Yes I agree. Art is to find better answers, simplifying things for self or the world. Most of the movements were started to challenge (perceived) previous disorder and injustice, and started as a revolt against the previous rigidity and possible non sense. But I do agree this is not always the case, and timeline and patterns might not always be as conveniently analyzed as I did in the article (I was just playing with some possible trends and commonalities). …

Problem of Complexity

Evolution increases order, which may or may not increase complexity (but usually does). — The Singularity Is Near, Ray Kurzweil

I, on the other, have been obsessed with bird watching and bird naming for a long time now with no success. …

As part of my research for the Kohl Rivers project, I have been investigating what the Indian artist, Nasreen Mohamedi, was reading.

I have always remained fascinated by the literature that my favorite writers and artists were indulging in. But in this case, more specifically, I was trying to find the thread of language less and meditative hermit-like work that Nasreen was producing.

I was thinking that if I find some of the writers and artists she was influenced by, I could find this connecting point on how each of these artists approached sublime work of abstract, without states of…

Our past has violation and injustice and present not devoid of cruelty either. But we remember. We stand by truth. As the orange blooms of an afternoon of spring sang in all their glory, and a banner of Black Lives Matter made the background, I thought to myself these are the small grounds which inhabit the long journey to healing. We start here.
