Time/Dust Convertor


Time/Dust Convertor

We can't handle Time. Not in time. Dust to Dust.



I made this picture using paint for fabric over paper. Then I made some changes, digitally, in the color tones and included some samples. Not bad for a first experiment. More to come...

From now on I bring to you a new sequence of images, this time with some different aspects. First of all, this will be my first attempt to do something I've been planning on doing for quite sometime: show some handmade work. But... as I am not a painter, I decide to combine my paintings in paper with some digital manipulation. Hope you enjoy this new and strange journey through this handmade landscapes.





PS.: Sorry for the delay in the posts. Too much work in my last year of graduation. I also have been traveling a lot recently. I'll try to be more present here now, I promise.

Well, this picture puts an end to this "Intermezzo". Unexpectedly, this sequence turned out to have a kind of connection, though this was not my original plan. What's coming next? Let's see...

Overture

And Life only one hand...

Not fair? HA!




Bloody Marvel

blood, living, marvel, bleeding, alive, opaque-destination
Bloody Marvel

Only the living bleed.

So, bleed to feel alive! This is getting more and more funny ...

(Do plants bleed green? ...)



It's Over Over Here



It's Over Over Here

The enemy is me
The killer is me
This army is me


A bizarre but very nice old/burnt effect. Words treated like image. Another example of simplicity. A war is over, a war begins...




Arrival/Departure

alive and well in Roswell, unusual, color
Arrival/Departure

Counting suns... fast and then faster until time stops.

This picture has an unusual combination of colors, I think. I gave up trying to understand what inspiration is and where it comes from. I heard that we never perceive colors the same way. It must be true.

I am what I've done...





NOTE: I was planning to post something last week, but I had to rehearse and travel to perform a concert with one of my bands. Now we are returning to our normal (?) programme...

Intermezzo

Intermezzo

This week I'm going to start another sequence of posts with some brand new material. There will be not a specific theme. The images will be connected, of course, but again in a subtle manner. About the words, the musical and literary references will be there, as usual. I call this new collection "Intermezzo".And it will be like a pause inside a long song...

Leitmotif ( or I Hear Only )

We look at ourselves and to the rest of the world. One may say the whole thing was supposed to work. I'm not quite sure. That's why sometimes I watch only. I hear only. It's not my part having those answers. Wasn't everything said before? They could solve this puzzle in one day but I'm too far now ( maybe in both, space and time ). It's not anymore a question of who's right. 'Keep it dark'. 'I'll just keep my mouth shut'. Struggle, struggle. It's all right. But never cheer before you know who's winning.

So, that's it! Here are the last but not least... With "Hollogram" and "Hollow Green" I bring my 'Twin Series' to an end. When I started this little project I didn't know where it was going to, but now I can say it was a very interesting experience and I'm very proud of this collection. A 'visual family album'. I hope you all have appreciated this artworks as much as I have ( No way! ) .

As I said before in a few days I'll be starting a new project. I'm already working on it... ( allright, allright, I was going to begin tomorrow!) and I hope to increase my rate of posts, probably two new posts by week. Stay around. And keep your distorted points of view on Opaque-Destination...The risk is all yours.
