Conjunction Painting

I enjoy how light is able to at the same time make them seem dense solid, ephemeral, and yet tenuous and light. At certain times the way they interact gives the perception that solidity and light are in flux, interchangable. This kind of appeals to my understanding that the Universe can be described as a self organised void, and indeed that what we take for solid is really mostly empty space filled with various forces such as the electro magnetic repulsive force between say your hand resting, on a table....that matter is merely condenced energy....energy in a lower energy state this is interesting. It speaks to a prospero like illusion or as guy sircello put it we view the world through senses that provide us with only a 'radically limited access to reality' So then there is the way explore and broaden the perception or interpretation of what I see. The background blue in one sense might represent the self organised void which is not to say that the clouds, sun, Moon, and in the case of this painting the conjunction with Jupiter and Saturn..... are not also a part of the same. I enjoy that this questions my senses and my understanding of reality I like the contrast in this.....It speaks to both knowing and unknown. Mmmmm I am once again reminded of William Blakes augaries of inocence....and of Weldrake. Also they are as always incomplete in the same way that nature is.....The building up of the layers is a metaphor if you like for the passage of time and so also speaks to the process of painting and of asking questions that words cannot fully encode. It is also rooted in reality and perhaps the most important question that my work raises is to address the delusion of religeous belief.....
