The process is the medium. The artist is the creator of the opportunity for the viewer to engage with the invisible made perceivable. The artist is the receiver, the channel and the maker. Our instinct is to dismiss Art as frivolous expression, a first world luxury but Art really rises out of the belly of poverty that is starved for more than intellectual gimmicks. ART mimics the soul the inviable part that strives to be recognized as available entity within our system of judgement
Who am I to write such things, invent them as if I knew what art is suppose to do to us, for us, within us and outside, in the world around us. Or claim that the soul exists within and can be observed as such through interrogation of the self that is not just made up from the Ego parts but also of on intuitive entity that is connected to a greater good and knowledge.
At Least I can throw out these questions just like abstract artists throw paint on a canvas to make us contemplate the reason for our existence and the parts that feed us like in soul food.
So yes, there is an artist in each one of us, the sleeping giant that really never sleeps but just pretends because in reality he is the one that creates it. A reality like out of thin air or polluted air or just gaseous air. Anything that makes the imagine tangible. We are invested by the visions we have of our self and our environment.
The soul starves for us so we can live an egocentric life but times are not as they seem to be if we pay attention. The soul has never died but I s ever present evger willing to rise within ourselves that are hungry for a deeper experience then the media outlets try to force us to belief.
Art is not only splitting our brains but also the essence of existence around us as we invent and reinvent it with every single thought we string together like a chain reaction.
The brain is the tool that captures imagination for us to filter our reflection through it because we are the passion we put into it, into the viewing of life through Art and the soul space we open up for.
We are life's animators. As artists we face our fears not with defensive mechanisms but with creativity and with tools to show us that the base instincts don't have to be linked to brut actions but can be elevated to sooth us with creamy strokes of color that lead us back to the root of beauty which births itself out of the chaos into form and symbols we can recognize and translate so that the soul within us can dance unafraid of the ramifications of our daily programming.
Art is the instincts is such a project that presents us with raw expressions contained in perceivable formats. The magical is not hidden but exposed because magic is not what we can explain but that which is unconceivable to the mind but hopefully not to the heart.
No we don't need all to be artists but can be soul brothers to enter into his mindset. By looking at Art we can peek behind the veil of consciousness and yes become part of the art and soul become a piece of art ourselves that we create accordingly so we can feel at home in our bodies as well as in any p[lace of our choosing because at the end all that counts is that we intuitively choose were our soul is nourished.
Yes Ken Spurlock's Art is for sale.
