Rorschach No. 1 (Saskia de Brauw after Jürgen Teller, 2014)

December 26 (Boxing Day), 2021: With the Webb Telescope finally and safely off the ground and headed away from Earth, it seems like an apt moment to create a spacey digital collage. Thanks to @katebryan_art for her post of Brussels sprouts of a couple days ago, celebrating the season, whose green I borrowed for green fractal swirls and a couple of planetessimals.

Blessed are those who arrive in our lives in silence, with light steps not to awaken our pains, not to awaken our ghosts, not to resuscitate our fears. Blessed are those who address us with lightness, kindly, speaking the language of peace so as not to frighten our souls. Blessed are those who touch our hearts with affection, look at us with respect and accept us whole with all our mistakes and imperfections. Blessed are those who give wings to our dreams and courage to our days. These people who unknowingly bring us comfort and encouragement and who naturally brighten our moments.

Ma confiance dans la poésie est sans limite. Elle est seule capable de me consoler de l’horreur du monde.

Such an interesting and telling juxtaposition. André Breton’s « L’amour fou » (“Mad Love”) is a Surrealist commentary on the illusion of love as a fleeting experience. Such an experience must, at its root, be an expression of capitalistic consumerism. And so, to place the ultimate objects of superficial expression and consumerism atop « L’amour fou » is either an exercise in irony or an insult to an essential insight of the Leader of the French surréalistes.
