What is the Churn of the Unmade

  What is the Churn of the Unmade?  Metamodernist art by JJFBbennett It isn’t just paint; it’s the heavy, exhausting gravity of pure affectation. I applied these deep purples and stark whites with a thick palette knife, wanting you to feel the weight of the medium itself—the messy, chaotic over-saturation of our digital lives, the constant noise.

MY FAVORITE IMAGE OF THE WEEK 23.9.17 #myfavoriteimage Shamini Mylapore Festival 2017 I can see the treasure of myths circulating between godliness and normality Breaking through the walls of today Reminding those of us trapped in the haste of work and process There is a time within nothing matters, that where imagination reigns Bringing forth and into light, transience and wonder If only I could have been there to see flight and fight  and experience the tearing of perceptual fabric
