Glyphs I, Opening Soon
If you let yourself slip into imagination, you may quickly realize that you and these ancients are not so very different. You might even catch an ephemeral whiff of their presence at your side. During a few moments over the course of my life, this presence has been visceral and piercing - moments when the connection felt very real and very concrete. These transcendental instants are rare and fleeting, but the fascination remains ever constant. Who were these ancient artists who first dipped hand into ochre and pressed it against the wall? Were their motivations so different from mine? I feel linked, hand by hand, and there is such comfort in being part of this great fabric of humanity, in knowing that my urge to create and desire to communicate is as old as human existence.
Glyphs I represents my cave walls, my flickering firelight, my communion with my ancient brothers and sisters. It is an algorithmic work of generative art, allowing that communion to be invoked again and again. It will be released during the next open window on fx(hash).
ancient mother hand / inks wall with precious ochre / indelible mark
firelight kisses art / ghostly echoes across time / gently graze my soul
i open my heart / welcoming the threads that bind / grasp your hand in mine
you and i the same / speaking our very being / hoping to be heard
Love and creativity always,
Wanda
