Spirituals

The more time progresses, the more foggy memories of the past become. Especially in a city like Budapest with such a rich history. The gypsy music underscores the melancholic times and the fog over the Danube covers history.

The Korean war memorial in Washington shows the lunacy of war and what it does with young men and women. The great statues and sandblasted images together are being admired by veterans. How do you cope when facing violence?

About harmony and self determination. There is harmony in cranes moving around containers at the huge container terminal in Rotterdam. The containers are lifted and dropped down at seemingly random places. The cranes perform a complicated choreography and manage the containers. But the containers move on and the cranes are stuck at the terminal. Are you like a crane or a container in life?

About death. Italians invest a lot in saying goodbey to their loved ones. Does it help in the proces of grieving to make it bigger? Do you take the time to say goodbey?

About sexual energy. There are so many sexy sculptures. Why? Do they reflect what we donot dare to say? Or do they entail the sensual energy of their makers? How do you use your sexual energy?

About drawing attention. A cormorant colony in the Dutch Dunes, making a lot of noise. Why are they noisy? To get food and attention? How about you? Do you recognise this behaviour in humans?

About ageing. Old flowers and old people can still be beautiful and special. How do you feel about getting older?

About diversity. Flowers are like people. Most fit in, but some are different from the rest, or are beautiful but just in the wrong setting. What makes you different?

About existence. I would never have seen the beauty of this sunrise if I did not get up early and fit. Is beauty only there with standby’s Someone ready to record it? Where are you now? And do you save the beauty around you?
