I made this print by using an old archaic photographic tecnique called cyanotype (or sun/blue print) for the phylosophical and mystical poem by Szilárd Borbély, the The Sequence of Three Secrets (A Három Titok Szekvenciája), which is a part of his series called Hasidic Sequences, where he reflects on Hasidic teachings and beliefs in literary form.
You can purchase this original and only one, signed copy through my Etsy if you like it.
Here's my english translation of the poem, below there is the hungarian original.
Taub Eizik from Kalev, a pupil of the Seer of
Lublin said that there are three types of
secrets in the world. One is
is like this Self-Consciousness, which
that everyone carries within himself
because of their previous lives. And have no idea what it is.
And don't understand why hide it
from others, because it is
hidden from itself too until
he dies again. The second secret,
is like a light hiding in the mind,
nesting in the depths of the skull
until it knows the
essence of speech: in the letters of writing
the faint glimmer of the primordial light that
has come to us from the beginning of creation
that gleams in the depths of life.
When the Self begins to read
a book written in human language,
Finally, the third secret is that of the
one who says: I. While he sorts
the stones at the beginning of the path
waiting for you, already prepared
the unturned stones by the entrance gate
and then reads the engraved
for the greatest secret
is the stone that only means
the Self. And it does not say, Amen.
