On the Artwork

By using a spontaneous form of action painting, without touching the brush to the paper at any time, three different shades of paint; gold, white and black, are used to emphasize free form, spontaneous creative expression not only in the written word, but in the space that it occupies. This method of action painting which withholds all contact with brush and medium excites notions of letting pure spontaneity occur through the open-ended natural course of creation taking shape out of human hands (in the air).

This representation of the spontaneous action of free form creativity in writing makes the viewer look at the entire page as one unified expression in the creative form of the particular written piece, whereby the empty space defines the writing as much as the words expressed on the page. Those who habitually write freehand, especially free form, improvisational writers, know that the limited size and type of paper (e.g. whether there are lines, creases, folds, graphics, etc.) inevitably divides up the rhythm of open-ended spontaneous expression.

By utilizing circular objects, such as plastic compact disc panels and other circular objects, I have used a method of action painting where I flit a paint-covered brush repeatedly to introduce a dense splatter effect over a circular form in order to regard the fact that all writing is inevitably formed by the shape of the letter, word and sound through which its expression carries. Another method of action painting brought me to form sizeable globs of paint in shape of an oval, especially at the end of a tail of paint or alone, confirming the universal truth that with free form, spontaneous movement, all form inevitably assumes a circularity (or cyclicality), as represented in the oval, sphere and all other circular formations found in nature that are central to the creative essence of form.

The center of the artwork details a line with a globular oval end protruding into a circular form. This marriage of two different methods of action painting, spraying over a concretized foreign object and allowing natural shapes to occur, is the central image in the piece, which glorifies human intent metaphorically through many complementary symbols, as in the sperm and the egg among others. The globular oval and thick line formed near to the core image represents a leading expression, passing away from the center’s concretized circular form, from which the rest of the paint devolves as miniscule spatial occupations on the page. The rest of the action painting signifies the importance of relatively negligible marks defining a whole expression of greater density and presence.

Note:

The process of creating this piece: freehand spontaneous writing on notepads, transcribing writings onto a computer, editing form of writing into conventional poetics, typing out each piece onto self-prepared craft paper, stitching together each page into a wall mural (or spatial literature), action painting, re-configuring the entire spatial layout page-by-page, photographing and scanning each page, designing the end artwork via computer software

Preamble

Preamble

Opening the page to experimental, improvised writing which emphasizes and attempts a most strict depiction of the spontaneous nature of mind can be perceived with harrowing aspiration in the realm of continuity; that is flipping the page.

As a forewarning of sorts, this collection of writing, as devised for readership, is the result of an editing which has purpose in giving the spontaneous flow of mental activity form. While attempting to convey the refreshing action of letting go, all structure and boundary and, in sense, constructs of mind are dissolved.

The writing asks many questions to the reader: Where do we place ourselves as we remain glued to the mirror image of our world? When do we notice that the contour and shape of the mirror-image reflected into our minds is in fact an artificial; that is reflective function, as opposed to a direct sight? How do we understand and make observations into the absolved outpouring of mental fruition through a most basic, almost instinctual, resonance with words as mere vessels of human energy? How can we instill in the reading a sense of self, a theatrical play of noticing self as natural form, spontaneously resolved and perceived in the moment?

The title of the collection “Cyclical Wordplay” brings to light the foundational nature of creation as a cyclical process, with rhythmic momentum in a constant transition between renewal and decomposition. The idea “Wordplay” refers to a notion that words can be as sounds on an instrument, simply meant to be full to the brim with a particular feeling and raw emotion/thought/idea/sensation through which it is able to carry into a context of form and meaning. So, in a sense, we can conceive of words' symbolic sound, through which the newfound impression of the given moment may relay its inward need to express itself in a very subtle form; through a word. Each individual reader is as an instrument through which that symbolic sound or word idea is carried and resonates with a new meaning each time, according to the particular temperament and character of the individual, allowing that symbolic sound or meaning to carry through them as its basic vibration.

Spurious Blame

spurious blame, the corridor towards bristling american fame.
glum rockstopping angelic veins

bellowing green mud into a ghastly shatterdome factory cone
rummaging into the asshole wounded entrances of hind museum
embellishments veering off the possible pathway and sworn to ruining,

nursed to zero wanting,
defiled rambling on the cursed block nomad goal always westernizd to mean not-a-thing!

crazy intellect brine unfeeling as the dreaming vedic horse
that destroys cruel menacing peace in the morbid fashions of contemporary lividity
as the canned terrorist restrains his or her or really actually its own land
to dismember a tribal blend drunk still consuming lessons from the unchanging unceasing word

continuing through an endurance of resilient constancy towards unfathomable infinity
as we next prize the possessd lord, presidential sitting atop class and race
as the manikin spits our obvious and necessary fate, chained, weand 'fraid,
chores neglecting the thrusted soothing light, panicking

“so drive and faster destinations a dead go combing thru billiond papers
moving spent with a spurning lust for the most high ancient door opening
and closing the divide between here and now”

all restless for the goddess entranced to wish insightful humorous rants
in the closet flesh of a city bum gotten it gooder than whats made already for her,
senseless devotion in trust and giving,
the silent offering, a body owned by one you deciding to end ending,
trapd no way or all ways frozen and run through with an embitterd forceful pace,
in the mending of aggression okayd in conflict space judgd by no personal waste
thrown to atheistic identified wind ruffian kids lurching forth with anxious sacrilegious patience,

“seeded sickness martyrd in the glass caverns of shapd reckoning
calling forward a landless vanishing
as the finished evocations of dynastic slavery trains the eyes of a rat-fish bestial love,”

“groping for home, just say...what there is to not say...give me a thinnd breach of time and place, wake me from the driveling selfless thrashd disorder or invite emotional
nothing, and non-thinking indulgent visitings. The trunk swirld for a banishd world created from the nearly unmade”

a timeless ocean of intent, bespoken with visceral imagining,
the spontaneous friend as nonhuman entity alleviating the pinkish boring stress
coarse as a matchstick curved with lint from a monotonous parasite of recycled minuteness.

“cancerous star, respirate to the spiritual rhythm of a blue jungle
worn to the ghostly inflamed aftermath of murderous self-trickery”

the shadow fool playing the fact again, misshapen to a crutch

“of individually percievd be’s the cleand slate”
