Digital Mythologies

-

  Digital Mythologies Synthetic verses spill from the speaker grille, a slow hum in a room lit by a screen. Multifaceted. Diverse arrays of ghost-light painting the walls. For all things living, and the things that just… pulse. A nervous system of wire and glass. A sense of the dynamic, the feedback loop, the urgency. The immediate challenges are headlines scrolling in red under a static-filled sky. Transcending conventional aesthetic limitations… The glitch is the new sublime, The corrupted file, a sacred text. A world… increasingly shaped, moulded by god-like, power-based forces Humming behind the firewall, writing our stories In a language we can no longer read.

It was so primitive From the 1860s to 1950s They were seemingly untreatable They were feared  There was panic Colonies within a colony A prison for the sick Of appalling living conditions Enforcing social isolation GRIM and SHAME

LSL 60

At the age of 60, I thought life would be much easier to understand In the '80s, I was painting art inspired by Fauvist, Cobra and Art Brut artists I wanted my art to be raw, powerful and primitive I was investigating our psychological and physical barriers as they failed to protect I wanted to paint self entrapment where sickness and resistance hid any possibility of outwardly demonstrating wellness.

Singapore Botanical

It is the smell that makes life so compelling The delicious smell of damp earth, fallen leaves and aged trees Return to an old wood rain forest to feel it in Sense the decomposing and surrendering of life Get to know the secrets held by the detritivore community Feed on the dead The scent of organisms recycling Making use of death for a continuation of life And allow the decay within to regenerate Picture yourself walking through a forest.  The light is fading fast You are racing to keep up with the light Apart from your panic everything is perfect What do you anticipate?
