Tuesday night Post #47

 As my mind expanded I still remembered to anchor

In the time I organized the memories

in that time I saw you briefly

Tuesday Night Post # 46

This is my working method.  For these drawings I have either started to destroy a resolution or started to solve a problem that is being created as I resolve.  A very much organic method, I fluctuate from solving to un-resolving the composition and symbolism.  Each pencil mark is left as an expression of a decision executed.  Sometimes erased to be re-experienced.  As I work I try to hold the belief that with each new stroke emerges a new drawing, forgetting any preconceptions.  There are times in which I remove myself from the drawing.  Allowing my mind to forget it and solve other ones in the set of problems I have developed.  These three are of a set I am working through.

As said before the method is of highs and lows.  Aesthetics and concepts, as I work through each, I struggle to unite the loose and emerging threads. 

Here are the puzzlers:

 

It’s hard to see each piece in some sort of disarray.   I can see some are unbalance in concept or design.   It’s also hard to remember certain stages I liked more that existed before the current version of the third one.

Tuesday Night Post # 45

Scattered Few,

"The closer I got to the reconstruction
 the farther she got"

The closer I got to the reconstruction

the farther she got

In a way I found what I was after

Not the truth but the way the truth makes us respond

But then the truth is the way we respond

Myself to the ground I followed the line

Every lovely curve

To every abrupt change

The lesson was in the way

I had to shift to fall into the groove

On time nestled

another split apart

Just as I was a child knowing not when to let up

Things broke and several pieces went a missing

Union came not at the moment

Union is not a definition

Union was the memory there after

For there to be union first there must be two or more things to unite; a cast of characters to portray the waves of reckless bodies accidentally becoming newly formed moments of ingenuity.  Or reflect the unraveling creative darkness that is consumption.  Imploding stars.  Particle accelerators. scientific advance...these unions are the ones that flicker brighter after they end.

Here are a few photos of heads I am working on. 

CicLAvia 2011

In the past I promised a video of the CicLAvia performance, but... unfortunately the video was never made.  The footage is not in my possession and because unforeseen circumstances I will not have access to it.  Its not the greatest of situations, but there will be more performances sooner then later.
