Welcome to my thoughts on digital intentionality I would love to hear yours too #art #painting

Crazy my plaits are nearly this length any way

In liminality

I want to let the wave take me, fly with excitement, feed possibility- feed myself to possibility. Be eaten whole and no doubt spat back out, all chewed up, masticated in the mouth of the future. The artists life calls me.

How to nurture death the dog At our heels Weaving between our legs. Depositing grey long Wiry strands on all our favourite most worn fabrics Maybe something the same age as me He told me to only use nature to Nurture nature It’s when a tree is lying down one gets the measure of its stature The last 4 lines are taken from the book ‘fresh water for flowers’ and the imagery of death as a dog also was inspired by this book. Love finding a read that slowly changes the way you see life. Filling my mind up with ideas

There is a beautiful world building in my mind I have seen it’s construction for some time I walk my path I find my toes Hugging my heel with each Tiny step I make forward This beautiful world Has many moving parts I see them orbiting me and mine At points closer At times farther away And how I let them swing Hoping and believing in magnetic fields And invisible strings I cannot own them or ask them Only act and watch Perhaps we can share the scene of this beautiful world In our minds eye Collective believing is magic at work Spidery strings descending out of collective minds With pleasure I will see you beside me looking forward Stepping as we can Sometimes holding hands Always sharing there

The most complicated lock box Drivets divets Slots slitting together In an order hear it Click Or not. Put you ear to my chest if you can Only if you’re far enough away Are you putting your hands in the right places To hold me Dear ‘youuu send me‘ Quietly dismantling from the inside out Stripes hidden too long in darkness Shone upon A geode or two A fossil pain from many before Not even aware until I never knew I could want selfish things Look I love my life. It would be a lot to sacrifice Think about it Cherished blindness

Do you know more about hate or love? What feels more natural as a reaction to you? Do you think there is something everywhere worth saving? Do you think there is something in everyone worth saving? Or replace saving with loving? Or hating? What makes you feel most driven to believe in change? What makes you feel most involved in change? I hadn’t been involved in a demonstration in a while because I went to some in winter and at that point I was so motivated by anger. I felt angry and wanted to stop promoting the idea of peace first and instead wanted some kind of justice! To push people who I thought were wrong because I kept seeing the pain they brought upon people. Two of these events, left me feeling spent from anger and shouting to no end and so hopeless. Because pushing people does not invite them to change their mind and every day small people, they somehow are the most important and the least. They are not making the systems but they are upholding them. How can I either work to target anger up way up the line. The ways are drastic! I saw somewhere recently that the idea of apocalypse is more imaginable than complete revolt. And that’s because to dismantle and revolt we need to trust in those who are around us. We’d need to leave the systems to lean on our local community. Do you have community? So how can I make people believe in connection? It feels like the most revolutionary thing I can possibly do. To live as much as my life can allow outside the system. I try! But I must not take myself out of the space and chill there. I must try and inspire as many people as possible to join me in fact the people who seem least likely to are probably the most important. Are you more driven from love for the innocent than hate of the sinners?

A new song Spinning discs trying to get stuck in my head The start of spring It really plants seeds here and there. We’re on the ridged edge about to step Into more art And spring invites my heart I see futures unfolding Spans of time lapped up by everyone I love Faces slowly changing and I can only See them so much Honing something tough inside It’s to hold fast to the truth Through the days or months Time has to pass. So I try to lay a rug Myself a unique flavour Requires a professional taster A repertoire Stirring hopes and dreams and hard work In a deep dark cauldron Cooking up the future And a dash of spring, An increase of heat to sim simmer
