Art beyond established convention

2011/12/21 Leave a comment

Literature, philosophy, to a certain extent even poetry and music, are – more often than not -, subtle but uncanny approximations, which in the long run entrap the soul. Even the loftiest aesthetic expression can be just mere appearance, which empowers the “more refined” levels of the ego in its everlasting dream.
Of course, I am aware that this goes against all rational convention, as there is an evident risk that I seem totally odd, since in fact, I am an artist myself.

However, to find those powerful tones, words and colours who put you in direct contact with Life beyond the dream, is the quest of a real master.

A very interesting composer who reaches “beyond”, into the essence, is Arvo Pärt. Check his Spiegel im Spiegel and you´ll hear…

About julienmatei
I feel an inner urge to express what I see, to communicate and share with others all these impressions. Often the things I see are there, not yet manifest, but waiting... to be observed, talked about, and embraced. These new insights need another approach, a more vivid curiosity... Due to fear and prejudice we prefer to see only "the official" truth - but THE OFFICIAL TRUTH IS DEAD - being dead, it has nothing to give... We can continue pretending Death is fascinating or... we can take the trouble to LIVE... THE NEW has no definition yet... Again, IT requires another "perception", the courage to apprehend everything differently, from a totally new angle, with new confidence and inquisitive touch. This blog is not about interesting concepts, it is about participation... finding new solutions, inspiration, togetherness.
