Abstract Painting
Life Being Time
Click to enlarge
The
inspiration
for
this
series
of
paintings
comes
both
from
the
philosophy
of
Heidegger
and
the
life
giving
and
life
sustaining
benefits
of
modern
medicine.
Every
drop
of
paint
used
for
the
painting
has
passed
through
a
syringe
-
a
life
keeper/giver
-
therefore
“Life”
in
the
title.
Each
application
of
paint
takes
approximately
the
same
time
as
preparing
and
administrating
an
injection.
“Being
and
Time”
is
the
title
of
a
major
work
by
Heidegger
arguing
that
in
“being”
and
“becoming”
all
we
really
have/own
is
“Time”
–
i.e.
the
time
we
take
up
in
living.
Sartre’s
work
“Being
and
Nothingness”
continued
from
there.
The
paintings
are
very
colourful
and
decorative
-
a
celebration
of
life.
They
are
intended
to
be
exciting
close
up
as
well
as
at
a
distance
with
new
colours
and
patterns
to
be
seen
at
every viewing.
