Like the website that hosts it, this blog is only concerned with using art and brief texts to uncover the bias and other limitations of thought conditioned by memory and tradition, thus also revealing how this largely unacknowledged tribal egotism that affects all human beings creates and sustains the systemic disorder and violence of the world in which we all live.

Without a radical awakening to the immense distance between our mental and social reality and the truth, we are condemned to continue living in the same cruel division, conflict, and sorrow to which we ourselves sustain with our personal memories, thoughts, and desires.

New Sumi Ink and Graphite Works on Paper

Fernando Llosa

The last row of this gallery features a piece that has already been framed in two different versions. The first is the original work completed by the implant of two Mexican Fire Opals (courtesy of Hashnu Stones) to improve its vision. The other is an enlarged print of the original work, and it has for eyes two sets of nearly identical Cayuga Lake fossils. Both are now housed in cherry shadow boxes; the one with the fancier eyes, under glass.
Also in the last row of thumbnails is a project for the joining together in a single frame two pieces shown above in fourth and twelve places respectively.
If interested in any of these pieces, framed or unframed, please get in touch with me here.
Unframed, these ink and graphite pieces range between 12 x 10” to 11 x 8” in size, and between 80 to US 200 dollars in price.
