Shadow

Shadow Exploring consciousness becomes a very important part of my day, but never an obsession. I will try to understand messages behind every possible contact from which consciousness speaks. My paintings will give me wonderful insight into my inner state, and Jungian interpretation will act like a translator in this process. Sometimes chaotic painting will emerge, and sometimes clean and precise — it will be easy to distinguish style, but the way in which painting speaks will change, and this changing will happen in intervals. There will be a lot of paintings in one speaking voice, then it will become another, stay consistent for one period, then come back to the old one. This particular one was chaotic. Snake Hiding Behind Purple Shadow I would like just to mention one small thing in this painting: the line in the middle, which goes till the circle (circle which in Jungian terms means self), is colored with green but in a way which resembles snake skin (can be interpreted like shado...

LETTER TO A CLOSE FRIEND

LETTER TO A CLOSE FRIEND



Stars Versus Dust in the Carina Nebula
 2023 december 6
 N.A.S.A


6 December, the day when I was born. Today I will turn 29. I don’t find this day anything special, but before, surely when I was a kid, this day was very special, with family and neighbors all around me. From a kid’s eyes, the world seemed like a very nice and pleasant place where all treated you like a king or at least a prince. This safeguarding will surely influence my future character. But don’t fool yourself, for this king’s future will not be all like the first years of his life.

I would like to publish a letter here that is mailed to my future self.

To Barbarossa

Dear friend, I hope you didn’t lose the spark of kindness you had, believing in people. Sometimes believing can hurt and make you lose more and more faith.

I’m at work today; it is 7:33, and your mother is at home with the flu. Outside, it’s freezing, but I’m sure you remember this day, remember?

It’s a strange time; no one knows who you are… weird, no? Just the same as everyone else, another person without titles or shows going on.

I know you can’t answer me, and this is a one-way letter. I’m very happy that my sacrifices and work brought a better life for everyone in our family, and I’m proud of you for being able to defend this family. You are a fighter, and there was no possibility for you to lose. I am very respectful and admiring of everything you’ve done. What great work! Nothing comes without a price.

Still, remember where you came from and the importance of the person who was with you when you weren’t red. Surely there is plenty you would like to tell me, and if I knew this, maybe it would be possible to change something. But I think there is nothing you can’t do, so while writing this, maybe I’ll get an answer too, because for you, the word “impossible” never existed.

When you’ll get this letter, my friend, I don’t know, but in any case, it will be at a moment you need it.

Remember, Barbarossa, everything passes—people, pain, happiness—everything passes.

Continue to dream.

Your best friend,
Nemanja

Manifesto of Arawnonciuiosness

  Manifesto of Arawnonciuiosness The Art of Conscious Chaos What is the Arawnonciuiosness Movement? We are an artistic movement born from a simple yet radical idea: art does not need to hold rational meaning to be valuable. Human perception is trapped by the limits of logic and meaning. Our rational brain constantly seeks patterns, significance, and order. Yet, all around us, the natural world thrives in what appears to be chaos: the universe, biology, ecosystems — all of it operates in perfect disorderly order. Earth, perfectly balanced in its orbit around the Sun, embodies the chaotic perfection of the universe — randomness that is magnificent Arawnonciuiosness embraces this truth. We seek to create art not from the rational mind, but from the pure flow of consciousness , unfiltered, spontaneous, and free from control. Our Philosophy: Consciousness as Creation Carl Jung said it well: "The unconscious is the source of all creativity. What appears in the unconscious must, in its ...

Something every big man doesn't have

Something every big man doesn't have   In absence of a figure or in the presence of one which doesn't have respect or, in better words, is doing harm to the figure which you have a genetically natural obligation to defend, inserting in your brain the need to be stronger and smarter so you can provide security for the ones you love will direct you to physical or psychological development. In some cases, both. Emotionally raped by a person which you admired will first develop emotions of revenge, which will create the need of becoming your own father, generate a person who is capable of caring and representing true monstrous controlling patient emotional behavior. This per son will become one whom others look to for a hand in need. This truly spectacular phenomenon, in which one without a figure becomes a figure for others, is just an initial part of the development of the 'big man.' It is so highly speculative, everything I say here , but my experience tells me people w...
