there's plenty of creativity here
but those who know me
know I like edgy and challenging
things that make me go oOo

this expo with 100's of stands

had something for everyone

including me
here's my picks ~

this colour palette and light 
by Pierre Riollet

 

carnaval de rio, 1922

still fresh and moderne

like mirrors of the soul

Da Vinci advised artists to stare for a long time

at old walls in order to find in them

familiar shapes to stimulate imagination

yes that's lego graffiti

folded paper and paint

plenty of playful

hologram 3d art is back

ȭỠõ thirty years later

creatives gravitate here

Dali loved Perpignan

at 4.21pm on August 27 1965

alerted to its aura by a bright

 shining light and a revelation in which 

"everything become overpoweringly evident"

he declared the lobby of the station
the centre of the universe

can't say I've been a fan of his art
but the man
unruly and unconventional

self indulgent and amusing

to mark the 30th anniversary 

of his death

an homage to Dali

with Francoise Hardy
by Jean-Marie Perier

hands 1977
by Pierre Boulat

hypercubicus 1953

by Francesc Catala Roca

egg shaped hat
by Postius

chemins de fer francais

perhaps Perpignan's location

invites many to gather there

creating a unique energy

whatever it is
I love it

💙

)))) know me like waves know shores

when you've lived by the seaside
all your life
it's in you

yes I have a beautiful lake close by

the River L'Hers flows opposite my house
and on my walks

mais
I miss that salty sea air
the endless horizon
boats
seagulls
waves
oh yes waves

that lightheaded feeling 

when your nose is full of ozone

walking on sand
barefoot

the Med

and mountains
oh la

searching for seashells

sitting on the sand 

just watching

I ran to the shore

the water was cool

it felt so goooood

I need the sea because it teaches me.
I don’t know if I learn music or awareness,
if it’s a single wave or its vast existence,
or only its harsh voice or its shining
suggestion of fishes and ships.
The fact is that until I fall asleep,
in some magnetic way I move in
the university of the waves.~ Pablo Neruda

<<<<< these days

one of those crazy conversations
you have in the wee small hours

after too many glasses of wine
life, art, religion, science
conspiracy theories
and timelines

today the 4th February
I have been on this Earth for
20,000 days
