remember, the English Patient ?
they can colonize external Land but not internal one . . . :)
maybe i am wrong :)
Only "rebels" look into their hearts and soul :)
:)
remember, the british were the oldest colonialists....
should not be british :)
"gaze" has been a big subject in film studies, which overlaps a lot with lit...
modern technology has turned people into visual animals.....
considering the time when that foto was taken, i am positive that it must have been taken by an European or American ....
what comes in mind now??
Orientalism!!!!!
!!!!!!!!
can't agree with you more.....
this photo is classic, not only because it was taken back then and historical, but it captures something in which words are meaningless . . . as i always say, the beauty of mystery . . . depending on our imagination to "interpret" it . two little fawns see their reflections in each other's eyes on the surface of water . . .
well said!!!
in lit studies and film studies, the male/female gaze was the earlier, but the most important element that caters human curiosity.....
so, commercial films are to attract people's eyes only....not much of their heart and soul.....
real art, like this foto, is to reveal a soulful and real moment between humans....
the boundary between trash and art sometimes is very thin.....even ambiguous...
thanx a lot!!!
所以那些是productions。。。“There are fundamental differences between/Creation and production” “A ‘product’ has no internal value”。。。
另外,仔细看摄影里Boy 和 Nude 的眼神很不一样,但是却互通。。。就像作舟的诗里,看不到neighbor girl’s 眼神,但是诗歌里画面的描述是一双眼睛所敞开的窗户,窗内的美“burned /my stealing/eyes”。。。而此时从诗里看到的除了窗内的美,更看到一双眼睛,就像那个Nude所凝视的那双眼睛。。。再读诗歌的第一节。。。
(gaze一下,这首诗与这张摄影在一起很秒不可言。。。)
作舟的诗抓住了这张照片的关键,表达了一个 Nature Boy 的自然,诗人这样不设防的回忆,给我的感觉很艺术很美很动人,什么都没有多想,只是觉得那一刻很自然。。。
modern lit. & visual productions used to be dominated by male gaze, that is, female is being looked at, like an object....
part of feminist lit. was to "gaze back," right??
i was struck by the time when the foto was taken, and the gazing back of the nude....male is not dominant, but only a boy figure who looks inncently....
thus, my own memory ... :)
thanx!
capturing the atmosphere
of the ineffable moment
of gazing - - - eyes'
soundless communicating
cannot help changing Philippe Denis' poem
as the following - - - some feeling alike
"daylight confession . . .into
the teeth of time . . ."
thanx, zf, for your artistic response!!!!
that vintage foto definitely inspired me......taken in 1915!!!!
can't believe it!!!!
就像那幅很美的摄影一样,你的新诗也是,非常ART,非常美。。。喜欢!!!
我读到美酒的味道:)
我喜欢这类艺术。。。soft eyes... tender heart... Nature boy!!!
These are colors of
infinity leading me on
a Voyage towards
a simple lesson:
Love is what keeps
it going . . . .
thank you for sharing your ART...
more later...
cheers!!!
good to see you blog on Sunday ....:)
i was indeed inspired from learning about fractals.....
realization: there is much to be learned....
thanx!!
“you mean the "devil" or the "beast?"
a Beast with a Tender Heart :)
“guess you have seen the connection between this poem and my post about" fractals" downstairs.....”
穿透鸿蒙是我读完后的一种感觉,我找不到合适的WORDS,所以“魔鬼般”用的是引号, 因为找不到合适的 WORD。。。imagination 需要new language … OM…
确实,这首诗的美感与your post about“fractals”有connection…
你诗歌的ART 越来越 ART 了:) 我很欣赏的那种 TASTE AND STYLE,...瞧,我又找不到合适的 WORDS…
all your reading and interpretation about OM are amamzingly insightful....!!!
great minds think alike!!
i assume you all have googled the word OM....
:)
zf: "...每个字逃脱了束缚,逃脱了时间..."
your view here is also my "goal" in writing this from looking up te definition of time....
this is also a "found" poem, i should add...
"...对我来说,整首诗读来像首随想曲,发出“魔鬼般”的意蕴..."
:)))
you mean the "devil" or the "beast?"
:)
穿透鸿蒙....
guess you have seen the connection between this poem and my post about" fractals" downstairs.....
cheers to you all!!
哈哈,这种诗好适合我这种“foolish”的人的胃口。。。我一直很喜欢你那些每行字少的诗,仿佛特别,很有能量的感觉。。。对我来说,整首诗读来像首随想曲,发出“魔鬼般”的意蕴:)))。。。蕴涵丰富无尽联想和领悟但是诗歌给我以透明的质感。。。
每个单字独立,但是读来非常连贯。。。
每一个字或几个相连的字在这首连贯的篇章里,都可采撷,再作一首歌。。。(我是指以这里的意蕴。。。)
每个字逃脱了束缚,逃脱了时间,为individual。。。但是又被某种“无形”联系在一起,成为一首诗,带来一种穿透力的诗。。。读来很舒爽。。。
诗里有很多可解读的趣味。。。喜欢最后的 “O m”, 读来像是于末了发出的一声很惬意的声音,传递着“新概念”,“_ _ O m”的新概念… 于TIME里,一切不复,“O m”生生不息。。。
? - imagination – language – imagination – new language – imagination …… - ?
如果 language 不限定在语言,而是表达表意表达感觉或意识等等的任何一种形式。。。“language is the needle”,穿透鸿蒙。。。如果不是TIME 的prisoner ,世界对他来说,皆为“混沌”,所以整首诗读来给我有种穿透力的感觉。。。
or
vice versa??
:)
thanx!
we can, at least, we try to visualize everything around us, visible or invisible, tangible or intangible, of form or formless. . . through feeling and imagination, the Gift. . . . e.g. when we say time, "irreversible', that's just because we, as individual, cannot see recurrences in our life; however, to the eyes of “history”, birth and death are recurring, things like mistakes or wars are repeating . . . stories always there, but carried on by different individuals from the same group of living creatures, that we call humankind . . . endless journeys witnessed by Time . . . or something we call Time.
"conceptualism" has its interesting elements.....but, it's made of "words" after all.... :)
"time" is one of those intriguingconcepts that can make us sound quite "foolish" at times.... :)
can we visualize "time?" etc...
thus, the foolish poem....haha....!!!
[...have a great wknd, everybody!!]
时光如在某个宇宙的隧道里如洪一样。。。时间,无岸的河,携带着种种。。。各
种声音汇入与流淌,成为历史。。。irreversible。。。但在REACHING SOMEWHERE。。。。
结尾犹如来自SOURCE的呼唤或回声。。。
