Bugs in the corridor, 2023
Today I walked home listening to The Modern Things from Bjork. I just had to draw something upon my arrival.
I realize art is not so much about what you actually create, but it’s about imprinting an experience so that it will stay with you. All my favorite works were created in moments of some sort of importance. Had I not created them, what would have I done with all the emotions? As the works stay I can revisit them and remember that such a thing has indeed happened, that it has taken its course in reality and in me.
Then why was it that we were taught to create for the sake of expression, beauty, novelty, importance in terms of development, or anything of the sort that actually has nothing to do with us? Why should I care if a work is any good in expressing this or that emotion, idea, or whatever? If it does, am I expectant to be satisfied by the fact that I could objectively and skillfully convey my situation, and enabled myself, an unseen and untouched reality, to finally materially exist in society?
It is indeed true that I was tricked into thinking so. That’s why I’m talking about it! Then what should one do next? Will I really be able to go for myself?
More works: [x]
A small painting with miniature details.
There is a process video here!
Quick acrylic on paper. Inspired by a pyrite cube I have.
A human life is not more important than an animal life.

We are equal.
I was listening to Empire Ants as I was about to fall asleep, so an image suddenly and randomly flashed in my head. (When the music changes beginning from 2:12)
You know, when you see a dream, even if it is meaningless you get really touched by it. So the same happened to me with this one and I felt like drawing what came to me. The image in my head was so blurry though. I had to make it concrete, which was tough. I'm not even sure if it was Noodle that I saw.
Anyway, I hope you like this speed painting.
Been listening to…
