WHERE IS THE TRUTH?

 


Sky and Obstacles - Amsterdam 2019


Where is the truth?

In the unreal nature of a story and the desire to bring it to life.

Let's write all the stories that come to our minds, but let's leave them there, where they belong, in the world of stories.

OPPORTUNITY

Pathway of lights and shadows - Harmelen (2020) In the ultra-competitive society we live in, we have been taught that opportunism can be an added value. From the purely competitive one, attributable to sports disciplines, to the philosophical one of "carpe-diem", the concept of "opportunity" permeates the life of each of us, so that our attention is often taken to recognize these alleged turning points, so that you can grab them right away. In reality an opportunistic behaviour can, when pursued without the right awareness, become the cause of great evils as well as an obstacle to our spiritual realization. It is not wrong to recognize the opportunities that life offers us, especially if these can make us grow internally, but it is good to stay away from those occasions which, enriching the materialistic aspect or the reputation of our earthly existence, seriously endanger our own. divine integrity.

Mannequin # 04731 - Perugia Taking pictures of dummies to discover their semantic power, their metaphorical meaning. Us and Them. What are the differences? Certainly, they let themselves be photographed. They are not shy. They do not react to the camera's hypnotic force. They are exceptional, impassive models of an almost alien nobility. Is it them who resemble us, or is it us who wish to look like them? Dreaming of artificial intelligences and cyborgs, in a future that is now increasingly less sci-fi and more available, mannequins remind us of these glorious in-animated creatures, which means "without a soul". Perfect, modeled, programmed creatures. Again, who looks like who? And then, here is the hand that dresses them, that positions them, that shows them. In its preparation, we can grasp the meaning of its existence infused by the creator. It is a full-fledged replicant, mirror of our induced needs, fetish of the Narcissus God that contemporary society unknowingly ado...
