The shape of time
Pockets of time
caught in art
trapped under pigment
line and colour
from a different age :
after the cave came canvas
but it’s the same process
time dedicated
to capturing time
a succession of moments
or of perceptions
or of intuitions
or simply of actions
but all shaped
thoughts feelings
observations
and there’s
a single narrative
running through it all
this is what it is
to be human
to be alive
or at least
an aspect of it
John Lyons
Beautiful. As a history of art student, I’m always incited by how temporally we think, and how that translates to the static image. A big fan of this!
