Artist Statement Echoes from Hong Kong

Image
 Echoes from Hong Kong Mural In a dusky alley in Hong Kong, neon lights flickered like distant stars. Mei Lin wandered, lost in thought, her heart a canvas stretched taut with yearning. Vivid hues of a mural danced along the brick walls. Each stroke was a memory of splendour and struggle, a rendition of the human spirit in an eternal quest for meaning. Artist Statement Echoes from Hong Kong Story Mei Lin wanders through a neon-lit alley, reflecting on her artistic struggles while observing a vibrant mural. Neon lights illuminated a damp alleyway, prompting reflections on the nature of creation. Is it the act, impact, or desire to leave a legacy? It could be a combination, an ongoing exploration of expression and connection. I must try to find a way to understand me. Mei Lin connects with Jin's music in a vibrant Hong Kong alley, sparking inspiration. The captivating allure of his music, imbued with the essence of lived experiences, strikes a profound chord within me. It ignites a c...

The Progress

 

The Progess - Nu Jazz by JJFBbennett

Intro:
Under the canopy of night, the mega city breathes.  
Its streets, bathed in artificial glow, stretch out, endless.  
Bridges and towers, silent sentinels, stand tall against the darkness,  
Their lights are a beacon for our weary souls wandering beneath them.

Verse 1:
In this city of dreams and realities intertwined.  
Cars drift slowly, each a microcosm, each a solitary journey.  
The horizon promises more of the same. 
A continuation of the unknown, the unseen, the unspoken.

Chorus 1:
And the lights, they tell stories,  
But from afar, they blend into a tapestry of light and shadow.  
A cold, distant beauty,  
Reminding us of the vastness we pretend to understand.
The vastness.
Cold and beautiful.

Verse 2:
The city hums, a melody of human achievement,  
Yet within its pulse, the silent voices go unheard.  
Each window, a world, each light, a fragment of a life,  
Together, they form a pattern.  
A design too grand to decipher.

Chorus 2:
And the lights—they tell stories,  
But from afar, they blend into a tapestry of light and shadow.  
A cold, distant beauty,  
Reminding us of the vastness we pretend to understand.
The vastness.
Cold and beautiful.

Bridge:
In the face of such immensity,  
We embrace the absurdity,  
Find comfort in the struggle,  
And push forward, constantly pushing,  
In this Sisyphean dance with life.

Outro:
Under the canopy of night, Melbourne breathes.  
Its lights, its shadows, its stories.  
They whisper of the unknown,  
Of the endless journey we all undertake,  
And the beauty we find in the struggle,  
As we continue to reach, to strive, to live.
In the vastness.
Cold and beautiful.
In the vastness.
Cold and beautiful.

Outro:
Under the canopy of night, Melbourne breathes.  
Its lights, its shadows, its stories.  
They whisper of the unknown,  
Of the endless journey we all undertake,  
And the beauty we find in the struggle,  
As we continue to reach, to strive, to live.
In the vastness.
Cold and beautiful.
In the vastness.
Cold and beautiful.
