Do you wanna start a cult with me? I'm not vibrating like I ought to be. I need a purpose, I can't keep surfing. Through this existential misery.

Inspired by a conversation with Andrea
and the father that cares for his children.
treated myself to a Panasonic LX100 last year thinking it would serve as a "pocket" camera. Never really got on with it. Well enough constructed but I find it a bit fiddly to use.
Just getting round to clearing out the memory card now after 6 months of sitting jacket pockets, this one was shot in the seasonal German market in Edinburgh. Not as sharp as it might be but the best of a fairly mediocre bunch.

Here we've got an existential classic from the id-iom stable. Just as I was getting a little bored during the spring clean of my 'studio' I came across the old 'How can I tell her?' stencils and thought putting that on canvas for a little street drop is a far better use of my time than actually doing any cleaning. I think my favourite aspect of this picture is his desperation at his inability to tell her that they aren't really lovers and are, in fact, just stencils. Life can be tough, can't it?
Cheers

"Daydream
I fell asleep amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
On a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day"
Hello Flickr, not much to report at the moment- it just seems like every week I'm having another existential crisis. I've been having counselling for the last month, every Friday morning. It's been so helpful in helping me unpick areas of my life where I often get stuck and I've had no idea why or how to get unstuck. Slow but definite progress. In the meantime, Dex came home to find me like this.
He'll get used to it.
"They thought they could dispose of me
They tried to make me small
I suffered each indignity
But now rise above it all"

Photographyās new conscience
A black-and-white view of a decaying building in Rijeka, where a vertical mural of primate faces stares out from a crumbling wall. The expressive artwork contrasts with broken staircases and exposed stone, evoking themes of memory, collapse and continuity. A satellite dish stands awkwardly in front, adding a modern echo to the ruin. A moment of urban archaeology and existential commentary.
Liminality (from the Latin meaning "a threshold") is a psychological, neurological, or metaphysical subjective state, conscious or unconscious, of being on the "threshold" of or between two different existential planes, as defined in neurological psychology (a "liminal state").
I think we can all identify with that.... ;-)
As part of coordinated protest action by tens of thousands of people worldwide, demonstrators took to the streets to demand urgent action to tackle the existential threat of catastrophic climate change. In London, several hundred protesters, many of them students, met in Parliament Square before marching to the Home Office. All part of the Fridays for Future campaign.
Here, a protester carries a placard - "You cannot eat money but you can eat the rich," underlining the extent to which the wealthy, and particularly the top 1%, are not only responsible for most of the emissions but are also consuming and wasting land intensive food products particularly from animal agriculture. At the same time, concentrated corporate power lobbies governments to resist demands for richer nations to subsidize poorer countries to enable them to transform to more sustainable development paths. Higher taxation levels on the rich could help to lower emissions and provide essential support to the victims of climate change.
"You can eat the rich" is a slogan, originally attributed to the Genevan philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, but now widely used by those opposed to growing income inequality as it has become increasingly extreme in the fifty years since the 1970s, due in part to increased corporate power over government.

Sound familiar ??
Within human experience, time and space are inextricably entangled.
Together they form the basis of our everyday life, and moreover, link
it to the very beginning of life and thus existence itself, that is to the
origin of the evolution of the universe from a singularity, the big
bang. It is this interdependence of the two concepts and their initial
genesis that I focus on in my artistic practice.
The expansive installation Perception of the Stendhal Syndrome rep-
resents my conception to approach existential questions through the
means of aesthetic experience. By means of developing a specific set
of techniques, I aim to overcome the limits of the medium of painting
and to expand it by the category of time.
With this work, I hope to engage the visitor on all levels,
instantaneously: Perception of the Stendhal Syndrome comprises one
of my large-scale white-on-black paintings from the series
Gene&Ethics ā Master Prism (1,80 x 2,80 m) and a custom-made,
sculptural magnifying glass, measuring 1,58 m in height, which is
hung from the ceiling at distance to the canvas. Each visitor will
perceive a completely unique series of images when approaching the
work, as every slightest move generates an entirely new impression.
The installation thus aims to provide an experience of my work that
simultaneously allows for a macro perspective and micro perspective
of the painting, thereby revealing my different painting techniques,
which are the result of a long-term synthesizing process of
conceptual practices and technical-chemical explorations.
I have been experimenting with the constitutive elements of painting,
that is the quality of the paint, its support, as well as a range of
unconventional painting techniques, to attain this effect. Through the
interplay between the medium, the timing and my body, physically
moving around a canvas on the floor, I seek to derive a specific fluid
and organic quality in my paintings.
The literally puzzling and elusive nature of the experience of
approaching Gene&Ethics ā Master Prism while looking through a
magnifying glass, lies at the center of my interest: each beholder is
forced to reverberate his/her own position in regard to the work and
within the actual space, instinctively. At the beginning of every
philosophical reflection stands the question of the point of view. With
this installation, I would like to take an explicit stance towards this
issue, as it is each individual human being that stands at the center
of the art: My work only exists when being experienced!
However, it not only deals with perception, on the contrary, with the
strategy of providing sensual experiences, I seek to sharpen the
senses for societal and environmental issues. I have drawn inspiration
from sculptors, such as Anish Kapoor and Tony Cragg, but also the
architect Frank Gehry, who are all known for providing unique spatial
experiences that trigger reflections about oneās existence.
The installation thus literally reaches out, in order to encompass the
viewer on a bodily, psychological and self-reflexive level. By way of
providing this engaging experience, I try to raise the viewersā
awareness of space-time, opening up the possibility to relate this
perception to the ābigger pictureā of our existence.
