An Open Letter to my one of my former media students from IMAG, now a great visual artist, See on FB
To me Judy, I relate to your story, more in fact that I was called the shitbox, the etc, etc, Tired of the negative aspects of our existence, Your car was a shitbox, but you are a good person, we create negative images within and around ourselves because of the forms of the dime novels of the modernist period, which ironically re-gurgitated back to its early filmic adaptations avec comic movies of this day, la de da! Mine was a "pile of crap", "jezuz Donald u #%#%$# uo again" and we push ourselves into what "they" have painted us for 500 years! Great to see the art today of our contemporaries, emerging and established artists, what does this have to do with my car, naming it, blah blah blah? I attended a workshop Monday with the Rubaboo Festival, and a wonderful lady Joanne Daniels share a wonderful perspective on who we are as people and why culture is so important avec the spiritual and the Cosmological nature of our breathe, our place in the world, and how our breathe is left on our path, intertwining avec ancestors, ancient ones, aho, let it be. So naming our "pony" was essential in our travels to bless our pony, name it because as we are the ones who are able to shape matter, matter exists as a breathe even in the things we create. Thunderbirds, thunder, so deep within the earth's soul and beyond, we as a first people were taught these words long B4 the Old World arrived. As Jesus walked among us, he said I may not come back, because they might kill me, and so it was so. While away Jesus comes back and shows that "they "did kill him, but he will be back soon. Jesus was of many great aspects of the Cosmological beings here and today, and I feel that a great weigh has been lifted off my being, and the car is a gift from the universe for work I have done, and more work that I must do, Spirit Pony I like. Green is a natural colour, don't you thing? Part of the Woodlands, the little people, and deep and around Mother Earth. Deathtrap, well, that's more like the trap door in my opinion, It will happen when it happens, so let’s forget about that till we are dead, then we can stay asking questions , creating spiritual art in the dead zone between life and beyond. Keep up the Great work, Hy hy Miigweech! ;-)
