Using “negative space” in creating artworks can hold a lot of different meanings, like loss, emptiness, boredom, vacuum or insignificance. Negative space is also the place to breathe, taking the pressure out from the business of pattern, color and composition. Just breathe! Inhale…exhale…inhale…exhale…

Is breathing maybe also a good advice for an encounter with negative space in real life? Inhale…exhale…inhale…exhale…

The earth is mine, when people are welcoming opportunities to master their ego

Rats are said to leave a sinking ship first. But if you - fren - leave the space, do it gracefully and at least make your nails! Otherwise stay and shut up.

The earth is mine, when people write their book of legacy without regret

Loads of everything is lots of all things: all things good and bad, full and empty, supportive and destructive, bold and quiet…but especially all the unfinished tasks and never ending to do lists. 

Sometimes this load sits there. Right there, in the center of our focus - hard to overlook and not to ignore. It is seemingly unconnected to any side, waiting for something to happen. 

What is going to happen? Right now, nothing. 

Who is going to (re-)move it? Right now, nobody. 

When is change coming? Right now, never. 

Right now, the focus is on the load and not on the empty, ready to be written on “negative space” (what an irony) AROUND the load. If the load is not connected to the outside, then a tiny step left or right, a tiny progress in time, can change the whole picture. And THEN the loads of everything becomes the lands of endless opportunities!

The earth is mine, when people realize that love and light are the beginning and the end

Paul Klee (german painter, 1879-1940) is quoted to have said, “A line is a dot that went for a walk.” 

A dot simply starts from someWHERE to move to someWHERE, always from someTHING to someTHING, and also from someONE to someONE. Two someONEs are not someTWOs, but ALL can try to “walk the line”, idiomatic for “maintaining an intermediate position between contrasting choices”, right? 

Which line are you walking? The line from the past, the line crossing others, the line leading to better understanding? Where is your line leading to? Or are you maybe walking many lines at the same time?

Walking the Line

Limited edition Art Journal Musings about "life"...dropped every Tuesday.

MuseTuesday

It is a huge misunderstanding, that our lives are linear and developing. It is not true, that we constantly grow, become more, better, faster!  And this is especially not true for a woman's life, as women live in cycles - literally physically. The origin comes from an evolutionary thinking and is not related to a human life. We manouver through (outside and inside) circumstances, sometimes this is easy and sometimes there are quite some obstacles. Yes, we advance in technology and science, but the daily struggles of "surviving" (and I do not mean the search for food, although this is real for some) is a universal, human and non-linear experience.

Evolution

I invite you to substitute the word "people" in the individual NFT titles with "colors" to understand how I converse about boarders, loss and desperation in these abstract artworks.
