Emotion blender
The therapeutic act of experimentation
By Konstantina Diamantopoulou
Ink, Ecolines, Watercolor, Oil Pastel, Collage
The mix.
Emotions mixed with dreams mixed with imagination mixed with reality artefacts
Throw ink, color, words and worlds. Let ‘em dance.
That piece of paper, that represented hope for love. That part of of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy that gave me more energy than a protein smoothie that day.
What’s that tape. How about this texture? I feel ugly. Make this ugly. We’re fine. I want to be loved. What is the shape of hope? Is this black too black?
Let me break this down and re-compose.
This is fun. What if? Oh yes. Oh I can do this all day long.
Hopeless romantic
Ending
Not hallucinating
Total perspective vortex
Seeking meaning
What does the artist mean? What is the right order? What is the right orientation?
There is no right order. There is no right orientation.
There is not such thing as “right emotions to experience”.
It’s your art, your message.
