Visual Journal Entry #14

 

Upside Down world as it was cut into two halves

In today's entry, we can find some mixing of sobering colors composing this rather angular visual journal. We can find shades of purple, coffee paper, gold, silver, black and some white ones on the rather little space. Finally, a small miniscule space for breathing and freedom of movement. The images are readily identifiable, we have purple roses, a butterfly, upside down jar of purple flower and a young barely adult girl, seemingly wearing a school uniform or study outfit with a small purse held between her timid hands. The entire spread was held together by a very commanding background, a snapshot of a portion of our galaxy with constellations, stars and dusts all rendered in gold. However, a big portion of the background is in black and dark purple, just like the endless darkness of the universe. In the foreground, framed is the upside down image of a globe, with some horizontal and vertical lines, that make up the latitude and longitude lines that cross the entire planet, although imaginary. Also, the middle part, supposed to be the equator is cut, therefore rendering the sphere into two halves: one half circle is on top and the other one, the bottom. Lastly, I invite you to look at the bottom part of the whole visual journal, in the middle bottom is a transparent jar containing a purple rose, growing from the green half circle. This green half circle is a kind of  upside-down horn, which I am comparing to the old astronomical symbol of constellation Taurus, the bull's horn, a place of infinite regeneration, growth and fertility. The purple rose is in state of infinite growth, as it was nourished by the fertile ground of bull's horn, even when the world is in such a mess, in incomprehensible state or in endless state of decay, destruction and death, there is a place beyond it, a place of infinite growth, healing, regeneration and in simple terms, life.
