December 26 (Boxing Day), 2021: With the Webb Telescope finally and safely off the ground and headed away from Earth, it seems like an apt moment to create a spacey digital collage. Thanks to @katebryan_art for her post of Brussels sprouts of a couple days ago, celebrating the season, whose green I borrowed for green fractal swirls and a couple of planetessimals.

Blessed are those who arrive in our lives in silence, with light steps not to awaken our pains, not to awaken our ghosts, not to resuscitate our fears. Blessed are those who address us with lightness, kindly, speaking the language of peace so as not to frighten our souls. Blessed are those who touch our hearts with affection, look at us with respect and accept us whole with all our mistakes and imperfections. Blessed are those who give wings to our dreams and courage to our days. These people who unknowingly bring us comfort and encouragement and who naturally brighten our moments.

I admit to being slightly obsessed with taking photos that have crooked horizons and squaring them to horizontal. I know there’s a notion that a cock-eyed frame makes a more dramatic photo, but it often seems to me that the result just looks lazy or sloppy, like a snapshot, of which there are plenty with crooked horizons. Here’s one where I question whether inattention to the horizon is an improvement—a fashion photo with a world champion skydiver (link below). Left, as published (in Tumblr): what’s going on?; right, with horizon horizontal: the model is now clearly arrowing toward the ground.

Frozen in Time.Spanish Sculptors, Coderch & Malavia.

[sealanehill]

First and last images in this group* — « Líber », Coderch & Malavia, 74 cm., 2020.

Some notes on this piece (because it intrigued me):

Joan Coderch (1959- ) and Javier Malavia (1970- ) are Valencia-based sculptors who have been working together in a collaborative partnership known as Coderch & Malavia since 2015 (1, 2). Their Instagram account identifies this sculpture as a 2020 work in white and brown patinated bronze called « Líber » (3), probably signifying “free” in Valencian Catalan. The sculpture stands 78 centimeters (30.75 inches) tall and was produced as “Li[í?]ber (White)” in an edition of eight (4). In addition to the 8-piece edition in white and brown patina, the sculptors also apparently produced an edition of eight, “Li[í?]ber (Black),” in bronze with black patina (5, 6).

* When I first encountered this reblogged post, only the very first image showed. The other sculptures are (from top to bottom): « El tejido del tiempo (Tissue of Time) », “Clio’s Dream,” “The Flight of the Swan,” “Haiku,” and “Moonlight Shadow.”

A relative posted a Facebook album of photos from “Maya: The Exhibition” at the Cincinnati Museum Center about a month ago. My talented wife drew a sketch from one of the photos, a limestone bas relief depicting a Mayan ruler. I used her sketch to make a drypoint plate.

“The older I get, the more intense is my interest in the various ways and forms in which light appears in nature. I am amazed, I learn from that, and I am aware that it is the light of the sun that illuminates the buildings I envision. I hold spaces, materials, textures, colors, surfaces, and shapes up to the light of the sun; I capture this light, reflect it, filter it, screen it off; I thin it out to create a luster in the right spot. Light as an agent, I’m familiar with it. But when I really start thinking about it, I understand hardly anything.”
