Montreal.
Night.
◄#3, March 2006
March 31, 2006, Lac
Ouaureau.
Late night.
I put the yellow “seed” in #3 March. The imagery
became cum spot in black blood with vagina seed—and finished the web pages
for
The Introduction to the Romantic Idea
lecture series.
April 1, 2006. Lac
Ouaureau.
Late afternoon.
I put the black “barrow” at the bottom of #3 March 2006.
First, there was the
formal necessity... something had to stabilize the image and lock it into
the format. And equal to the formal necessity, the black was needed to
amplify and confirm the image of the painting as being the most elementary
form of life lifting above death.
Note: In
his Chinese painting lessons at the Zhezhiang Academy in 1988,
Professor Min said of such marks as the black mound at the bottom of
#3, March 2006 (often in Chinese painting and
calligraphy the seal or “chop” is used), “They are there so the
qi will not escape.”
