just updated my 2008 visual arts
testimonial & allegorical piece
MOVIMENTO
and i retitled it
«movimento … sempre e nunca»
it features new & haunting music by Paul Mottram: “Melisma” (ANW 1440 – Chill Out 4)
the written description of what the piece meant to me remains the same, tho.
if you have a moment {38 seconds} please check it out or revisit it.
thanks~snb
(ps: the prior music had expired so youtube allowed me swap out to this new piece,
altho the sound ends abruptly ~ since no sound fade out function on YT “edit video”).
DESCRIPTION:
… shows
our various
road trips
these past
few years
melded &
obscured &
stacked &
transposed:
but
together –
translated
into our
constant
motion &
movement:
onward &
upward & outward& perhaps
even a little
wayward.~*~*~*~*~*~*~
but that beguiling movimento was
recurrently transgressed & violated
by a mystErious dark angelso i ceased from it &
i ejected from it &
i banished it back to the depths of its loneliness.i moved forward and away
from all the nonsense & that wasted specter
to a higher level & a more incredible life &
a reinvigorated creatively artistic me.now there is no hole in
my heart or
my head or
my soul.(R.I.P. 2004/03/17-2007/07/25)

“Melancholia” by Albrecht Dürer (Image via Wikipedia)
| WIKI IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Melancholia I The bat-like creature flying through a night sky declares the subject of this famous engraving: Melancolia I. That dark temperament is personified by a female figure seated in the foreground. The winged infant beside her is a ‘genius’ (in the ancient sense, meaning an accompanying spirit). Melancholy has wings and from her belt hang keys and a money bag, symbolizing power and wealth. She is surrounded by measuring instruments. Above her head is a panel of ‘magic’ numbers (they add up to 34 in all directions). At her feet are the tools that can fashion the material world. Yet she does nothing: lost in thought, she turns away from the light.Renaissance philosophers had suggested a new interpretation for melancholy, as the temperament of genius (in the modern sense). Melancholy was possessed by artists, in whom ‘Imagination’ predominates; ‘Reason’ dominates scholars; while the final stage of ‘Spirit’ was the preserve of theologians. If this interpretation is correct, Dürer has presented us with a portrait of his own temperament as an artist. |
