A Double View Of Sky

(for an artwork by Chaled Res. He posted this picture of it on Oct.11,2024 with the caption: 'Sold... private collection in Dubai'.) ... ... ... ... ... ... We are blessed by a giant thunderbird, which raises us to where we can hold a world in the circle of vision. The intricate, secret stories of the living layer deserve to have that sky overhead, to be symmetrical with their inner depth. We see an alternative Gaia being made complete by its sky. The living landscape also blesses us: it shows the sky through the eyes of living things as they look upward aspiringly. Nothing is hidden, but on the journey of living things to be whole, they wrap themselves in intermediate spaces of aspiration. Our far-reaching human endowment blesses us with a double view of sky.
