COLOR COMMANDO 2010
you get to see these things when you hang out under bridges .
i think it looks just fine, hoping to see some more.
i used to paint in an old run down factory where guys would play paintball. the walls were all spotted with impacts of color but the paint they used was a translucent sort of food colouring so the result was often a sloppy mess.

MAGICAL THINKING
In anthropology, psychology, and cognitive science, the term magical thinking is used to describe causal reasoning that looks for correlation between acts or utterances and certain events.
In religion, folk religion and superstition, the correlation posited is between religious ritual, such as prayer, sacrifice or the observance of a taboo, and an expected benefit or recompense.
In clinical psychology, magical thinking is a condition that causes the patient to experience irrational fear of performing certain acts or having certain thoughts because they assume a correlation with their acts and threatening calamities.
Magical thinking includes all systems of magic, as it includes the idea mental causation, i.e. the possibility of the mind taking an effect on the physical world directly.
In Jungian psychology, magical thinking is described in terms of synchronicity, an approach that looks not for causality but for meaning in the co-occurrence of certain events.

IGNORANCE
i set out yesterday to my atelier with the intent to clean it thouroughly and maybe gain an extra square meter of footspace.
this is purely therapeutic as i ususally end up just moving shit around until i forget that i was supposed to clean and actually regain interest in an old drawing or unfinished canvas.
when i got to the point where i had sorted out the canvases that i would keep and those i could paint over i faced the tedious task of sorting through my sprays . there are the half ful , the quarter full and those that have just a little left over but not empty enough to be discarded.
i gathered the rest cans in a big bag and the canvases and proceded to empty the cans onto the canvases as they came out of the bag and spraying until empty.
i have been wondering for a while what makes graffiti such a public nuisance. more than cars, publicity, noise, dogshit, violence and mindless tv. whats left to live when life is perfect?
as i painted the canvases i tried to stay as far away from what i like in 'graffiti'. trying to adopt a "drunken monk" technique, as far from any sort of reflection as possible is not an easy task.
here is a series i proudly present as 'IGNORANCE' .
no letters
no fancy colors
no can control
no balance
no mind.
