Your hands

By pablo neruda"

When your hands leap

towards mine, love,

what do they bring me in flight?

Why did they stop

at my lips, so suddenly,

why do I know them,

as if once before,

I have touched them,

as if, before being,

they travelled

my forehead, my waist?

Their smoothness came

winging through time,

over the sea and the smoke,

over the Spring,

and when you laid

your hands on my chest

I knew those wings

of the gold doves,

I knew that clay,

and that colour of grain.

The years of my life

have been roadways of searching,

a climbing of stairs,

a crossing of reefs.

Trains hurled me onwards

waters recalled me,

on the surface of grapes

it seemed that I touched you.

Wood, of a sudden,

made contact with you,

the almond-tree summoned

your hidden smoothness,

until both your hands

closed on my chest,

like a pair of wings

ending their flight.

Video reference to my coming up essay


This video is a very important key to my up and coming essay on Japanese Art. In my chosen essay question I want to focus mainly on Yamato-e Art, this includes the contemporary style of Yamato-e in comparison to that of 16th century. The question will be " what relevance does contemporary Japanese Painting Yamato-e have in relation to that of 16th century yamato-e?"

reference for guernica by Picasso with grammar

・Painting is not done to decorate apartments, it is an offensive and defensive instrument of war against the enemy・[1] Picasso stated in referring to life. In my chosen essay topic, Picasso・s mural dedication of Guernica, I plan to show the aspects that made it so influential during the early twentieth century. This will be answered by briefly covering Picasso・s roots in life, the social setting of Guernica・s creation e.g. the political issue, a summary of it・s composition, how it touched on modernism, and finally how Picasso・s painting caught the zeitgeist of emotion released at the time.



My choice of Picasso as the Model Artist was because of admiration, for I grew up with the knowledge of his background elements and passion for art. His distinct style

of cubism with a prolific sense of the edge gave him what was needed to become a prodigy. It was at the age of only fourteen that his father Jose Ruiz Blasco bequeathed him with his pallet in awe of the astounding progress his son was making[2]. Pablo Picasso, his full name, is known to be one of the most influential artists of all time, in fact the greatest of the twentieth century. What were the extents of his study within Art and his contributions to pioneering vast avenues of the field and how did that

create a market for modernism in the early twentieth century? I shall try and address that. Picasso, the son of Maria Picasso Y Lopez and Jose Ruiz Blassco, at the end of the day was just an ordinary human being yet his miraculous achievement with Guernica was enormous.

blue oysters

recently I visited the blue oyster, I thought at first impression...that the boxes of cardboard made space seem more vacant, that is mostly areas of current absence..it was because they were empty that I also began to feel empty. to know of matter which cannot move means that the interaction..is not mutual, one way, and singular..
I went from there to another room, women were screaming inside television boxes...so up to now I have felt an emptiness in myself...then I feel less closure from the opposite sex. There were 4-5 screens releasing sound through headphones, it was my choice to listen, to see, most of all to feel

quite a fast drawing,never think too deeply about it too much, although the best drawing come unconsciously..

..liquid dancing..

This is a dance I really find inspiring. Liquid dancing or liquid pop began in the late 80s during the clubbing and the techno rave scene. The hand movements are mostly significant, the reason for this is that they give rise to the body, they act as waves which have the ability of moving seperately..or together:) and transform rigid motion into fluid movement.

This image relates alot to the current work I'm doing in Gouache. I enjoy the feeling of painting with limited colour. I try to remember exactly where this started and my mind is flustered..but I think it was about 5 when began.

what I think about computers..?

I think because I am already subject to using one at this point there is immediate connection. I think in the current society we have technology is compulsory to change, that is within our natural environment or upon existing frames...

I feel though we depend heavily on them, which leads to large distance between true physical expression, for example music can be scratched or dj'd by downloading programmes instead of actual ownership of a turntable, people can order groceries through internet without needing as much time or effort, art can be produced without pigment but only the line between mind and movement...

I think it's truly impossible to state the answers,let you decide..
