Put the thorn in my side, the coins on my eyes
I'm not awake, I'm leaving Eden



And all her frozen charms lie cold in my arms
Panic went away and left me reeling

Abstract and Surreal DDs for JanuaryI think we're much smarter than we were.
Everybody knows that abstract art can be art, 
and most people know that they may not like it, 
even if they understand there's another purpose to it.
(Roy Lichtenstein)
Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only 
what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision.
(Salvador Dalí)

Memories Punish Me Once Again>>> Anathema, Regret <<<



As I drift away, far away from you
I feel all alone in a crowded room
Thinking to myself
"There's no escape from this
fear, regret, loneliness"



Visions of love and hate
A collage behind my eyes
Remnants of dying laughter
Echoes of silent cries

PE Abstract and Surreal: *KizukiTamuraInterview with *KizukiTamura
:iconkizukitamura:
How would you explain the concept of abstraction/surrealism to someone who has never heard of it before?
Surrealism refers to certain definite codes rooted in psychoanalysis, philosophy etc. and favours associative, non-logical processes like in dreams or automatic writing. Whereas abstraction is rather a personal vision of reality at a given time. In photography, abstraction often leads to a poetic approach, but also gives the opportunity of experimenting.

 What inspires you to use the concept of abstraction/surrealism for your artwork?
 
As a matter of fact, I work rather with abstraction than with surrealism. In my eyes, surrealism is nowadays a bit outdated, but I am still very fond of Breton, Magritte and others, who transformed the artistic standards of their time.
In my work I do not aim at abstraction for abstractio

Saturday Spotlight: Volume 008An Interview with-
~Megalithicmatt










:iconmegalithicmatt:
Megalithicmatt's Gallery
> Please introduce yourself, in your own words. What are your interests?
Hi, my name’s Matthew Davidson - I go by the moniker Megalithicmatt because I like visiting ancient sites such as stone circles and standing stones. I’m a geochemist, not an artist or designer by trade, so my photographs are taken purely as a hobby, though I have considered becoming a working photographer in the past. Aside from history and archaeology, I enjoy hiking, rock climbing and anything that gets me out into the countryside.
