Non-conformist, Visionary, and Independent

5 Abstract, -5 Islamic, 2 Ukiyo-e, -8 Cubist, 0 Impressionist and -16 Renaissance!

Abstract art uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which exists independently of what may appear to others as visual realities. Western had been underpinned by the logic of perspective and an attempt to reproduce an illusion of visible reality. It allowed the progressive thinking artists to show a different side to the world around them. By the end of the 19th century many artists felt a need to create a 'new kind of art' which would encompass the fundamental changes taking place in technology, science and philosophy. Abstract artists created art that was diverse and reflected the social and intellectual turmoil in all areas of Western culture.


People that chose abstract art as their preferred artform tend to be visionsaries. They see things in the world around them and in people that others may miss because they look beyond what is visual only with the eye. They rely on their inner thoughts and feelings in dealing with the world around them instead of on what they are told they should think and feel. They feel freed from the tendancy to be bound by traditional thought and experiences. They look more toward their own ideas and experiences than what they are told by their religious upbringing or from scientific evidence. They tend to like to prove theories themselves instead of relying on the insight or ideas of others. They are not bound by common and mundane, but like to travel and have new experiences. They value intelligence, but they also enjoy a challenge. They can be rather argumentative when they are being forced or feel as if they are being forced to conform.

Are You A Poem

Are you a poem?

I can hear you in the next room
Calling
Searching
For something you’ve lost

There’s water seeping into your bed sheets, and I
Have no idea where you keep the clean towels
But you
Take it all in [one long] stride

Are you a poem?

There are moments
(moments)
When the calculated grace falters
When you flop
Boneless as a stolen doll
Falling to my carpet,
Careworn
Moments when the mask slips
And you grin,
Goofy like sunlight
Or rest your head on my shoulder
Just breathing
There are moments when the
Truth leaks out

Are you a poem?

Yes.

Up in Smoke

Sometimes I smell autumn on your skin
That mix of honey and smoke that lets me know
You’ve been with him again

Yeah, I know.
Thought I’d struck ‘jealousy’ out of my vocabularly
When I took polyamoury as part of my identity.

But I see you with him and I want to cry.

Every time you step outside
(just for a minute
A quick conversation)
I know that your hands and lips will be all over him
That you’re breathing his breath
Even though you know he’s poison.
That he’ll give you more pain
Than I ever could – or could ever
Want to.
Because I know
That’s why you like him.

Have begun plotting for my birthday party.

It won't be a house-warming, I do know that.

But hopefully I'll come up with something. :-)


Back to sewing for me. :-)
