Aegeolides

Aegeolides, the big hearted Ocean’s svelte daughters
Generators of joy, cheerful, pure, diverse
With the deep-pleated veils through the world you wander boosted
By the winds and circularly roam in cycloid vortexes
Come blissful, genial, moving in spirals and reveal
The sweet life to the Mystics

Geolides!

Svelte daughters which step firmly on earth. They look at the sky and dance freely with the wind throughout the seasons of the year.

I created their shape from olive, pine, spruce and eucalyptus driven by nature’s shape, the coil.

A shape which stands as a symbol that rules the universe and the structure of our cells.

Within the macrocosm the galaxies rotate in massive double or multiple coils.

Within the microcosm the DNA’s double helix determines our material corporeality.

A seductive shape, recognisable from our being which relaxes the troubled thought and leads to mental equilibrium.

Panta rhei, Heraclitus

The hole in the water

Of Uranus

Uranus , father of all, indomitable part of the world,
first born, the beginning and the end of everything ,
father of the world, who as sphere goes round the earth,
home of blissful Gods, who advances with whirls of a spinning top
heavenly and earthly guard of all you surround,
you hold in your chest the greedy need of nature,
dark blue , unconquerable , shiny , variform ,
all-seeing , father of Cronus , blissful , supreme divinity,
listen bringing virtuous life to newly born mystic.

Relationships

Life is myself, the one outside of me, the similar and the unlike, the world around and within me. Dead ends, contradictions, discontinuities, cracks, desires and fear of exceedance mark our lives from the first moment to the last.

We are our relationships; relationships with ourselves and the others; relationships which we seek while at the same time we fear and undermine. Relationships which enrich and those which impoverish and shrink us.

Lines which group and flow, unite and intersect weaving with colours the texture of a relationship, the binding, the identification, the disagreement, the tension.

" BEZIEHUNGEN"

Das Leben ist ich,
der andere außerhalb von mir,
gleich und verschieden,
die Welt in mir und um mich herum.

Ausweglosigkeit, Widersprüche, Ungleichmäßigkeit, Risse, Wünsche und die Angst etwas zu Überschreiten prägen unser Leben von Anfang bis zum Ende.
Wir sind unsere Beziehungen.
Unsere Beziehungen mit uns selbst und den anderen.
Die Beziehungen nach den wir uns sehnen, während wir gleichzeitig Angst haben und diese untergraben.
Die Beziehungen die uns bereichern und die die uns verarmen und schrumpfen lassen.

Linien die sich in Gruppen vereinen und fließen. Die sich verstricken und kreuzen und Farblich die Handlung, die Bindung, die Identifizierung, die Meinungsverschiedenheit und die Spannung in einer Beziehung darstellen.  

Activated matter

Nature has humans enjoying the whole of creation and be in control of it, using their superiority so to be imposed and using their minds to create, in their turn, a different world order negating the given equilibrium and making themselves captive of matter.

Time and their senses, hearing, smell, taste and intuition have degenerated and during their short lives they are being consumed in reproduction and evolution of the well-trodden track, which makes them be used by the items through the power humans transfuse in them.

A system that produces useless items for its time to be recycled as a production cost of its commitment and extinction.
