CALENDAR

 

"Every day we punch a hole (some days seem like 2) to mark
the day, but every day has wild colors too. Even when the
green and grey explode (left upper corner) the days are
methodically marked off. also, some days are merely black
boxes as if they don't exist. If you notice every so often a
day is circled with black or thin white, or is a bit
lighter. This is very literally, my spiritual calendar for a
typical month. (My month seems a lot longer than 30 days)."
- Peter Schwartz

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WONDERFUL IS NATURAL

 

"This one I think is more obvious. The person in it is
giving in to the state of bliss and opening up a dimension
where random colors float in a former abyss."
- Peter Schwartz

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RICE WARS

 

"Rice is one of the most basic, essential
forms of food. So if we call it the perfect symbol of
sustenance, it is natural that at some point we would seek
to trace its course. If we do this intellectually (see left
side) we are left with only x-rays of the rice and mind. If
we do so with the right side of our brain, the creative
side, not only does the rice come alive in full color, but
we realize that in a single (fat) grain of rice, all colors
are contained. We also realize that even this too is subject
to change because eventually it just comes out of our butts.
What is life if not a "war" between these 2 realities?" 
- Peter Schwartz
