Order of Things #5, 2010

Everything is changing. Family events, people and historical moments are flowing around us like a stream getting around a stone. All things are moving, but the stone is constant, resisting any change, any move. But the stone is changing. It just has a different time table. If you want to the stone changing, use the stone's time scale.

Malmo Painting #2

You need a lot of energy, talent and hard work to get to the top (or to the center). But when you are at the top, you don't have more aspirations, you don't have new challenges. The only challenge you have is to keep your position. This makes you big, harden, inflexible - a stone. And stones even in the middle of a whirlpool sink.This is a cycle of any system from a artist to an empire.
