CLAIRVOYANCE

 

Not all art is a pretty picture.

Art is created with various pigments, oxides, ephemera, found objects

on various surfaces

with brushes, palette knives, pencils, pens, fingers, glue, wood blocks . . .

cameras . . . computers . . . clay . . . you name it!

This *visual journaling* piece combines 2 different shots

from a printmaker's shelf to a grafitti artist's wall . . .

Calligraphically, it appeals to me!

Metaphorically, it has helped me process some writing

which has been on the wall, but not honestly addressed.

 

“I feel that art can have a message, can provoke and still be beautiful.

I use texture and iridescent pigments,

which remind me of the sparkle of broken glass

and the rainbow in oil and gas spills.”

~ Janet Culbertson ~

 

"The guest at the lower end of the middle couch,

with three hairs on his bald head

and his scalp streaked with pigment,

who is digging in his big mouth with a toothpick,

is a fraud, Aefulanus, He has no teeth.”

~ Marcus Aurelius ~

Dressed as a carnivorous plant lady, I set out to get fed during the small hours of the night. Not bugs, but anything else would’ve done. A bartender watched me burn the little sugar remaining in my blood as I made my way to the end of the bar in my Halloween finest. He said, “catchy clothes”. I said, “THANKS!”, because they were. Bug catchers. Get it? Then he walked over to the menu I was reading on the wall and said it again: CATCHY CLOTHES. So I’m all, HAHAHA YEAH THA— wait what?…. as he pointed to a huge “kitchen closed” sign. I ordered a water and went to the bathroom to pout, where I read (and took this photo of) the writing on the wall: check your ego at the door, lady. I’m just happy to be here, y’all. Now can we please get mama some Circle K donuts before I am unalived?
