Sky Wall

In his book, Sunim seems to remind me that it is nothing but possible to enlarge the capacity of the heart in holding and accepting the things I can't accept. We may just need to ask, maybe to the universe even though our hope is a cold little prayer which burn with so faint a flame. When I fall in love, it is either fall or love yet it is also inevitable to get stuck in between. By that time, to embrace anything at any moment means to do best. Since who am I to put so much hate and raise expectation to what should and shall be, who am I to force things to be undone when they are destined to happen, and who am I not to love him still?  When you are my downfalls as well my rises. #Jakarta Canon Canonet QL17 G-III / Fujicolor C200, Agfa Vista Plus 200/ Dev&Scan : Labrana Jakarta  

While I am likely better to ground myself in reality these days, which I find it's difficult to do as I constantly feel like being in the wrong era, was supposed to be born in earlier century. So instead, I fulfilled my classical ego, stretching myself and mind back to the old time through vintage visuals offered on a visit to Rembrandt's house that echoed the life in the seventeenth century.  Having a visit to historical old side always gives me this strange yet happy feeling, as well it constantly gives me goosebumps as I sense it all the way, like an almost otherwordly beauty. The Kitchen. Rembrandt's living and private room , the box bed which was so expensive and only man of means who owned it back then. The place where his wife, Saskia, lied down. Since Rembrandt was also an art dealer back in time, there were so many paintings from painters who were close to him as well paintings made by his pupils. He had this room to keep all

*) Favored Piece Flight of Angels, Two Holding a Large Feather , Taddeo Zuccaro , c. 1556 - c. 1558 Pen & brown ink on brown paper with brown wash, heightened with white, h 347mm × w 245mm Starting with my favored piece, even though this is not Baroque I’m going to talk about.  It goes so much in harmony when brown ink is carved on brown paper, naturally and wholly fused to the point that I thought this was a digital art print/design, splendid. This elaborate sheet itself was a design for a spandrel. As a mannerist artist, Zuccaro seemed to really show the characteristics of mannerism in his work by highlighting many sculptural forms with clarity of contrasting lines.  Figura Serpentinata  or technique intended to make figures look more dynamic, is as well used as we can see when they are pictured in spiral pose(s). The fact that it’s appeared in mono-colour doesn’t make his work less compelling since it goes along with subtle and hazy contours of surfaces rend

I was looking for reading material related to feminism when I found Amanda Lovelace’s anthologies on my e-reader shop. I should have executed my first plan reading Roxane Gay’s but let me share glimpse of my thoughts about her two books that I have just done reading;  The Princess Saves Herself in This One  and  The Witch Doesn’t Burn in This One . If you decide  to dive deeper into feminism-world and fancy to know how feminist shows her expression wrapped in poetry, Amanda’s writing would probably give you such depiction, even though I personally go to her second rather than her first book in regards to the matter.   On  the Princess Saves Herself in This One,  she breaths in the figure of a princess to help her communicate the messages. This autobiography-poems collection tends to extend the ideas related to child abuse, family's problems, personal disorders, trauma, violence, and death, making the reader seem to enter a dark room of the writer as well as embrace it th

What does it like to be Dali sometimes makes me wonder. Lost in imagination, dreams, and thoughts is not always a pleasant journey since it may get overwhelming at times. Yet what a gifted and passionate soul to have channeled and created 1,600 paintings with numerous graphic works, designs, sculptures including three-dimensional objects over his lifespan.  Set foot in Dali's small yet exquisite exhibition in Belfort, Belgium self was a surreal experience. It was pretty much like temporarily sedated to be brought into the dimension of his brilliant artistry.          Some of his paintings and drawings really take place in my heart. Dali's Bestiary, for instance, was inspired by 245 fables of a French poet, Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695). He depicted animals that had human traits, expressed humor, naivety, and psychological awareness. #Gala'sDinners Dali used a lot of surrealistic symbols to characterize the images on these lithographies.
