*Working Towards a Better World & HFF

 

I believe that art helps change attitudes, speak the truth, heal, create beauty, give us food for thought keep our history going,

that is why I have chosen to put this into WTBW.

 

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance. - Aristotle

 

What is art but a way of seeing?

Thomas Berger

 

Art remains the one way possible of speaking truth. -

Robert Browning

 

Art is the Queen of all sciences communicating knowledge to all the generations of the world. -

Leonardo da Vinci

 

Art is Power. -

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 

Art is not a thing; it is a way. -

Elbert Hubbard

 

I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for. - Georgia O'Keeffe

 

We all know that art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth. - Pablo Picasso

 

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜

“Arrive” by Malachi Watson-Narcisse

 

This piece features a young man with a single piece of luggage. He finds himself in a new land, hopeful of a better life and a bright future.

 

“This piece was inspired by the large population of immigrants found in Brampton. It reflects the humble beginnings as well as the hopes and dreams of those who come to the city to start a new life… I hope my art makes our community more pleasant to be in. I hope my art helps the city of Brampton eventually create a new aesthetic identity. I hope my art being displayed inspires others artistically.”

 

About Malachi Watson-Narcisse

Malachi Watson-Narcisse is a Brampton based illustrator and graphic designer. His art uses a visual vocabulary that includes contrast, colour and balance to highlight a diverse range of subjects with the hope of fostering a sense of community and connection.

Traffic Box Art Pilot Project

 

Artist: Aditi Kashyap, Amye St John, Annmarie Claudette, Malachi Watson-Narcisse, Michel Nwoye-Vincent.

Category: Temporary Public Art Projects

Address: Downtown Queen Street, Brampton

 

The City of Brampton has transformed five traffic control boxes to feature artwork from the Arts, Culture & Creative Industry Development Agency’s (ACCIDA) “Postcard Project – Your Artist Story”. This project asks artists to submit work which explores their connection to the City and reflects on how their artistic practice captures the spirit and stories of Brampton.

 

The featured artwork is by local artists Aditi Kashyap (Queen Street East & Chapel Street), Amye St John (Centre Street & Queen Street East), Annmarie Claudette (Queen Street East & Lynch Street), Malachi Watson-Narcisse (Queen Street East & Hansen Road), Michel Nwoye-Vincent (Queen Street East & Rutherford Road).

 

This project is also supported by My Main Street funded by the Government of Canada through the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario.

As this is a City of Brampton Pilot Project, we want your feedback on how this pilot project impacts the downtown.

Spring is not just one of the seasons, it is a new life. A magical time when nature comes to life, the gentle sun warms, the birds sing joyfully on the branches, everything around turns green, blooms, and smells sweet. Time of fine mood, smiles, happiness, love. Everyone wants to share their positive emotions with loved ones. A person is in a hurry to tell the whole world about the feelings that overwhelm the heart. After all, it is simply impossible to remain silent about a miracle. My photo art helps to accurately and interestingly convey what is happening in our souls this season.

Some Days Starts Crazy and it Ends only Crazy, but the Art helps me to coming Down!

 

I had a chance to run through one cool morning when Izzy could stay in the car. It coincided w their free Thursday, it was very crowded. I maintain membership so I can visit any time even for a short time to look and experience art in its many forms :)

 

art tells stories, art marks history, art helps us imagine, art helps us think... ( so said hulya :)

 

here is one little video I took while there. Interestingly there were many people who had set themselves up to copy paintings, that is one way to study technique and form, and really see the art piece.

don't know what this book is like inside the cover (shot the snap in a garden accessory shop) but the spaces we live in and the ways in which we fill them with stuff certainly do affect 'how we live our lives'... it's kind of obvious I suppose - we've been redecorating a bedroom and are now at stage of deciding artwork for the wall...

 

can art help us to live better?

 

for me that's a rhetorical question

 

flickr helps me live better

  

Sometimes when I'm battling with a lot of self-doubt, I try to imagine myself rising above all my fears and insecurities. I hope my art helps you fly too.

Excerpt from brainproject.ca:

 

Graphic contemporary artist Kestin Cornwall believes sports and art help to create a community, bringing people together as fans, on teams, in running groups and as workout partners. He is also interested in the theory of epigenetic inheritance: the idea that environmental factors can affect the genes of children. Cornwall realizes there are positive and negative implications, and points out we must be sure we use them to bridge gaps and start conversations. Cornwall feels we need to push our collective consciousness toward a more positive, bright and inclusive future.

 

The Yogen Früz Pinkberry Brain Project brings attention to the importance of physical and mental health. Cornwall believes it is the duty of an artist to add beauty to the world while invoking the unending social responsibility of capturing thought. His work looks to a vibrant, diverse, loving and healthier future for this generation and those to come.

I’m not always in a state of tragedy, my art helps take it out of me. Perhaps it’s bittersweet to not always resemble what you create on the surface. I think it just means you have to dig a little deeper. Vulnerability is laboring. (Self-portrait, 2021)

This sculptural tribute to painter Jan Matejko sits in the shaded stillness of Planty Park, just outside Kraków’s medieval city walls. Cast in bronze and framed by steel, Matejko appears deep in thought, looking outward from a massive picture frame—perhaps toward the nation he so often depicted.

 

Matejko’s art helped forge a visual identity for Poland during its years under partition, and this monument, both literal and symbolic, honors his role as a guardian of collective memory. Nestled among trees, the frame blends art and landscape, inviting visitors to imagine history not just as something past—but something still unfolding.

I wanted to share my latest painting “The Path to Inner Peace”, which was inspired by the idea that inner peace is found not by striving aggressively for what we want, but rather happily embracing what we already have. I hope the art helps take you to a more peaceful place and that you have a wonderful day :)

I think my favorite shot is the beauty shot. I think an up close photo is like no other, it's just you and the camera. The connection in the eyes is important because without it, you have nothing.Body art helps too! :)

Any feedback is appreciated.

Bill hopes his art helps you rekindle many wonderful memories and invites you to bring the spirit of colour and movement into your own home"

i've been thumbelina crazy lately x3 i love this movie so much! so here is one more repaint of her. the gorgeous reroot has been done by my friend rodolphe. (:

I'm grateful for feelings.

 

There is something about films. They can be entertaining, or boring. They can be mainstream, or totally unknown. They can be rewarded with golden statues, or rotten tomatoes. They can be remembered through years, or undeservedly forgotten.

 

In the endless sea of various moving pictures, everyone can find a story, which is more than just a film. A story, which for a some reason feels more important than other films, even those which you anticipated more. Maybe that story can say something you really needed to hear. Maybe that story can answer the questions, which remained unanswered for years. Maybe that story can show you a new perspective. Maybe that story can help you to deal with something. Maybe that story can make you emotional (Pixar used to do this a lot, but not recently). Maybe that story can let you live a different life until the credits roll. Maybe it some other reason, any reason, this is just a bunch of most common.

 

But as soon as the credits roll, you are forced to go back to reality. And reality can be really different. A second ago you were free to go on any adventures the story has, you were powerful to face any enemies like a superhero, and now you're running from shadows and can't do anything. It's even worse, if the world on the screen was a better place. You don't want to go, but you have to go back to your boring staff, instead of living your best life, because it's just impossible. You can do it only in your head, when you're watching films, or when you're already awake, but don't want to get up because you can just think. Some people are lucky enough to also live their best life in dreams, but it's not something that can be done on purpose for most people.

 

The darker the times, the more people need films and other forms of stories... This is no more a luxury of escaping the reality, but rather a necessity of surviving IN reality. Of course, you shouldn't get too carried away with this, there should be a balance, or you can't survive either, but films really help.

  

Okay, that's my philosophy for today. :) So, I decided to build the cinema, though it doesn't have to be a cinema, you can watch films online on streams (like I did), but it's harder to portray, you know, so I thought a cinema would be a better metaphor, as well as the chains of the limitations of reality. This is also the real cinema in my city, I tried really hard to replicate those particular wall panels, which had steps just like the steps on the staircase below the panels, though it had less steps than the staircase, and also I build the more comfy seats on the front row, you can see now, why they look different. Actually, I haven't been to cinema since the pandemic started, not a single time, and even few years before that I haven't watched this film when it was out (and it's great that I didn't - I wouldn't like it back then). Which film? You can think about any film which fits the description above for YOU. :) That's what the art is about, isn't it?

I never visited a LP concert and that is what makes me so incredibly sad.

Wishing I had strength to stand

This is not what I had planned

It's out of my control"

The reason why I made this picture is because there is changing so much in my life right now. I have to keep my face as a protective shield to "protect my soul from attacks". It feels like there is no ground under my feet to stand on. Everything is falling apart. Art helps me to handle situations like this. And this is exactly what Chester Bennington did with his songs.

 

Hope you'll all have a nice week.

 

Cheers, Pauline.

This title page is rather fine, both in terms of design and production - sadly no specific artist is given.

My trusty camera has died. I am asking for help in getting a new one so I can keep bringing the art. Here is the link to my gofundme. Every little bit helps. Thank you. www.gofundme.com/a-new-camera-for-klyphra
