Awareness and responsibility

Becoming ‘aware’ of myself and my life has been a long journey for me. I am so committed that I created a two-months long program around awareness. Though the program revolves around different themes such as patience, acceptance and more, it is designed to provide powerful and playful ways to become aware of who we are in our Essence (in our core) and who we are not (the conditioned mind-patterns).

To my observation, most people find it ‘scary’ to become present. It is understandable because as soon as awareness takes hold in your consciousness, you become fully responsible for your life and your decisions.

Until you stay ‘unaware’, you can blame the world – the family, the neighbour, the government, God, etc – for anything you feel uncomfortable or frustrated with. As soon as, you start seeing your ‘patterns’ you will start having choices how to respond. Having a choice in how to respond to any situation is LIBERATING! You stop feeling trapped and life becomes a journey rather than a drag!

When you become aware, you will become powerful!

Antony Hopkins on Life

Anthony Hopkins has been one of my inspirations, a silent genius. He is not a star but a humble actor who strives to convey a message and tell a great story through his art. Apart from being one of the greatest actor of our time, he is also a philosopher who contemplates on Life and what is beyond the ‘visible’ world: the Dreamlike nature of Life.

He is talking with passion about moving beyond your comfort-zone and live life to the fullest. Just keep on going! 🙂

MANDALA: Circle of Wholeness

What is it about?

Mandala means “sacred circle” or “container of essence” in Sanskrit. 

The circle is a symbol of wholeness that has been used in ancient traditional healing worldwide.

The Mandala Art process I practice was developed by Dr. Judith Cornell as a modern expression of ancient sacred arts, using a simple colouring technique with white and coloured pencils on black paper to create luminous symbols representing aspects of wholeness.

El Greco

MY INSPIRATIONS VOL6.

El Greco has been characterized by modern scholars as an artist so individual that he belongs to no conventional school.

A unique master. I love El Greco because he was different not only by being a foreigner all his life but by interpreting life around him by his own standards and not by the expectations of his time. He was a passionate rebel with a unique style.

El Greco is regarded as a precursor of both Expressionism and Cubism, while his personality and works were a source of inspiration for poets and writers such as Rainer Maria Rilke and Nikos Kazantzakis. El Greco has been characterized by modern scholars as an artist so individual that he belongs to no conventional school. He is best known for tortuously elongated figures and often fantastic or phantasmagorical pigmentation, marrying Byzantine traditions with those of Western painting.

A great article on his work and how he influenced great 20th c. artists by the BBC.

I chose two extracts from the film El Greco that shows what a feisty, single minded. original and ruthlessly honest person El Greco was.

TAMARA de Lempicka

MY INSPIRATIONS VOL6.

I love the story of Tamara de Lempicka. She appeals to many female fans and feminists alike for her contributions to challenging the pompous nature of society throughout North America and Europe at that time, behaving in a way which was highly unusual at the time for any female.

Below is the trailer for the documentary in progress about painter Tamara de Lempicka

Modigliani

MY INSPIRATIONS VOL4.

I love Modigliani because the way he expressed emotions without making any fuss! 🙂 As you first glance at this paintings, they look as if they were exactly the same: somehow elongated figures positioned in a rather ordinary manner. But then suddenly as you look into them you start to see their feelings, their sorrows, their passions all hidden behind the simplistic, almost childlike figures.

The film depicts greatly the all-consuming passion with which Modigliani lived and died too soon at the age of 35.

David Hockney

MY INSPIRATIONS VOL5.

I love David Hockney’s art is because it reminds me of a child’s imagination. All his paintings are colourful, alive, expressive and childlike. They depict a world that is full of wonder and playfulness.

In a recent series of photographic drawings, David Hockney, shown above in his studio, plays with the relationship between painting and photography.

What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing. You wouldn’t be an artist unless you wanted to share an experience, a thought.

Botero

MY INSPIRATIONS VOL2.

Why do I love Botero? Just look at these adorable figures! 🙂 It is impossible not to fall in love with them immediately. This super Columbian mostly self-taught painter is one of my favourites because his painting remind me of childlike wonder. His paintings are mostly politically inspired, you can feel the tension at the same time I can also sense that I am looking at these events though the eyes of a child that are exaggerated and rather comical.

Chagall

MY INSPIRATIONS VOL3.

I love Chagall because of the gentle mystical elements in his paintings. It feels as if he hardly touches the canvas with his brush as he paints his pictures. His paintings has a dreamy. They are full of floating creatures giving me the impression that they are ungraspable and momentary, like life itself.

“He was a great mystical painter and the color blue was his choice in which to represent the spiritual and transcendent side through symbolism.” He was a deeply religious person who expressed his inner visions of Spirit in his artwork. One of his most famous work, the Peace window is displayed in the building of UN in New York. It depicts Peace as the sound of musical instruments that reminds me of the Sound Current through which God (Divine) talk to us and calls us Home.

This large free-standing composition in stained glass is a memorial to Dag Hammarskjˆld, former Secretary-General of the United Nations, and the fifteen others who lost their lives in a plane crash in Ndola, Africa while on a peace mission. It is a gift from United Nations staff members and Marc Chagall, the French artist who executed the work.A detail of the stained glass composition. 1/Aug/1985.
