The Hanged Man

2010-10-30T09:27:00.000-07:00

My version of the Hanged Man tarot card;

The Hanged Man is one of the most mysterious cards in the tarot deck. It is simple, but complex. It attracts, but also disturbs. It contradicts itself in countless ways. The Hanged Man is unsettling because it symbolizes the action of paradox in our lives. A paradox is something that appears contradictory, and yet is true. The Hanged Man presents to us certain truths, but they are hidden in their opposites.

The main lesson of the Hanged Man is that we "control" by letting go - we "win" by surrendering. The figure has made the ultimate surrender - to die on the cross of his own travails - yet he shines with the glory of divine understanding. He has sacrificed himself, but he emerges the victor. The Hanged Man also tells us that we can "move forward" by standing still. By suspending time, we can have all the time in the world.

The Hanged Man reminds us that the best approach to a problem is not always the most obvious. When we most want to force our will on someone, that is when we should release. When we most want to have our own way, that is when we should sacrifice. When we most want to act, that is when we should wait. The irony is that by making these contradictory moves, we find what we are looking for.

Der Todes Koenig

2010-08-26T21:38:00.000-07:00

The following set of photos are from the opening of "Der Todes Koenig" @ Lion Heart Gallery in Oberhausen Germany. I would like to express a lot of gratitude to my friends and family who made this possible and stood by me when I was being difficult.

I would also like to express extreme thanks to the owners and curators of Lionheart Gallery, Igor and Meike, who are two of the most extraordinary people I have ever met. Their kindness and generosity touched me deeply.

Some pieces are still available to purchase through the gallery.

If you are interested, please contact the gallery directly @ lionheartgallery.de

Thanks again, all the best, and enjoy!

Heading to Germany tomorrow for the opening on Saturday. I will be posting pics of the pieces when I return. Until then, all the best!

I have been graciously asked not to post any more photos of the boxes before the show, but I wanted to leave you with one more image. This is my "Rock of Ages"

First of Ten

2010-04-23T19:49:00.000-07:00

Sorry for the so-so photos, I will try to post more as they're completed. This is the first of ten boxes I'm creating along with some paintings for my upcoming show @ Lionheart Gallery in Oberhausen Germany on July 10th.

Corrections

2010-04-23T18:48:00.000-07:00

Just wanted to take a minute to clear up some mis-quotes I've put out there in recent interviews. In the recent Fecal Face interview I claimed that it was clients of Frederick Nietzsche's who were possibly tapping into universal consciousness by seeing the Holocaust before it happened. The correction is that they were actually patients of Sigmund Freud.

The second misquote I gave is in the Woodshop Films interview on Youtube, in the second video.

I claimed that Albert Einstein spoke about bee depopulation and how we would essentially be screwed if honey bees disappeared altogether. Although it has been widely publicized for years that Einstein said "If the bee disappears from the surface of the earth, man would have no more than four years to live." Turns out this can't actually be proven because Albert Einstein never physically wrote it down anywhere.

Wether it was Freud or Nietzsche, it is my personal belief that universal consciousness is a real and tangible thing, and it is fact that the bee population worldwide has been steadily declining, especially in North America, for years. The disappearance of bees would definitely be a major bummer for the planet.... even if Einstein didn't get quoted saying it.

Thank you!
