🎨 Head (Machine) - original painting
How curiously shallow the brain is; however subtle and deep thought is, it's nevertheless born of shallowness. Thought is bound by time and time is petty; it's this pettiness that perverts "seeing". Seeing is always instantaneous, as understanding, and the brain which is put together by time, prevents and also perverts seeing. Time and thought are inseparable; put an end to one, you put an end to the other. Thought cannot be destroyed by will for will is thought in action. Thought is one thing and the centre from which thought arises is another. Thought is the word and the word is the accumulation of memory, of experience. Without the word is there thought? There's a movement which is not word and it is not of thought. This movement can be described by thought but it is not of thought. This movement comes into being when the brain is still but active, and thought can never search out this movement.

quite a brainy post! I knew that one - and my mind works in strange ways too (great quote on top, btw) and without conscious direction, I get some word-associations happening, like "giving" ....

The landscape of broken dreams is how I feel when I see this @gric Your work always has so much narrative and gives me pause to look into it and fill my head with stories of what came before...
Really impressive. It's an excellent piece full of details. Fantastic!

Very nice, @gric.... The brain as a sponge is a natural allusion, but I really like how it seems that this head is all alone in a vast landscape of nothingness. The only other things on the canvas is two pieces of stones? Are they representing time that has crystallized? There seems to be something written on the face of the bigger stone..... Hmmm...
Love the colours, the texturing and the design for this piece. Thoughtful and very well painted <3 Very lovely.
Spectacular work it looks similar to Dali style....and at my eyes the brain rapresented here seems a spunge, in fact our brain is a spunge that absorbs informations of every kind. Really really good!! :)
