Dreams
This is a digital painting entry for an international contest.
Below is the comment I made as interpretation of my work:
I see 'dreams' as floating islands, somewhere in between reality and heaven. 'Dreams' helps to soften the impact of life. It could be a place, or it could be a person.
It is created out of spontaneity whenever inspiration comes. It calls me out of myself. Though it is imperfect, it holds everything in tension between stark reality and ideals of Love.
I would actually place it just a shade below the grand idea of Love but it's enough for me.
It is still indescribable, it still inspires strong emotions; it is larger than words, whether spoken or written, that try to contain it. In other words, it cannot be defined.
My dream will include being for people in this world not having to go hungry again. Children too would not need to suffer or die from malnutrition or diseases.
I could move my dream a few notches closer to ground zero or I could pull it all the way until it vanishes into heaven.
My 'dreams' is a place I'd rather be than heaven itself.
