The Bridge Painting

"The Bridge" is a depiction of a transition in human life. Inspired by my own move from California to Spain, this mixed-media painting shows a one year journey from one state to another. Every rectangle represents a month of my first year of the move, forming a bridge over the turbulent waters of the unknown. Two small triangles at the beginning and the end of the journey mark the entry and the exit into the transition. Every color and texture of the rectangle corresponds to the feelings I had during that month. Some are plainer, others are denser or darker. Some are singular, others in the middle are blended together with a swirl of blood. Towards the second half of the year, rectangles gain stronger foundation (clay part), which allows them to become more intricate in their shape. The sky is full of fire streaks, as in fireworks or a war scene. And the whole journey, as intense as it seems, is watched and protected by a solemn green-eyed archangel. "The Bridge" is mentioned in my fiction novella "Bitchify Me", which can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/Bitchify-Me-Elena-Emma/dp/1794471340 *** Я прощаю и прощаюсь с людьми, Позволяю ненавидеть себя. Скоро старт. Бог зажигает огни. Чемоданы. Драма. Крик. Сыновья. Я прощаюсь со своей немотой, Что пылится паутиной у рта. С дикой, немощной, больной пустотой В обессиленном низу живота. Я прощаюсь... и боюсь продохнуть, Дать свободу жирной точке в груди, Той, что сильно накаляет мой путь... Но иного мне уже не пройти. (C) 2017 TRANSLATED POETRY (ENGLISH) I forgive and say goodbye to my tribe Letting myself to be hated. The start is near. God lights the lights. Drama. Screams. Sons. Suitcases. I say goodbye to my dumbness, Which dusts with cobwebs at the lips And to a wild, feeble, sick emptiness In the exhausted lower abs above hips. I say goodbye ... and I'm afraid to pause, To release a fat dot in the chest, The one that boils up my path ... But I won’t choose anything else.
