great art, great story. Thank you!
Amazing art!
I also appreciate hearing the artists background stories and how meaningful art is.
Wow. One day BAM (medical errors) my vision was wrecked (& brain, neck and throat damage): everything was much darker, I couldn't see the moon & stars properly (all blurred), I couldn't read the text at the bottom of the telly (breakfast time TV then) which had been so clear before. I couldn't move my eyes to scan around rooms or the garden and sometimes couldn't understand what I saw = still now. My right eye sank into my head, my eyelid muscles were too weak to hold them open so I found I was using forehead muscles; my irises went white at the top and a yellow bulge developed on the inside corners of both eyes; my eyes now face in slightly different directions and none of my glasses let me see with both eyes in focus at the same time.
The optician ignored all this, as did my GP, the doctors & hospital lied, denied anything had gone wrong during anaesthesia (even though I awoke paralysed & suffocating in the operating theatre = 'awake paralysis' plus I suffocated due to their errors with paralysing drugs (& others) and the breathing tube; my throat was gouged out and they broke a bone (or cartilage?) in the front og my throat which clicked really loudly as I swallowed; food gets stuck going down and I choke on food and sometimes aspirate liwquids. I still haven't been told exactly what injuries they gave me, at the start my GP pretended they were all due to 'PTSD' (psychological) but he refused to examine me or test whether I was telling the truth: he chose to help his colleagues at the hospital with their cover-up.
I too use art as my therapy but I've become even more injured (neck & back) from latest move of lodgings so it's even more difficult and painful now - and where I live isn't adapted to my needs so I'm getting worse. If only the docs & NHS hospital (in the UK) had told the truth at the start: then I'd have got (what is supposed to be my right): info, remedial care and rehab etc. but the NHS tells lies and prefers to protect negligent and dangerous doctors and itself so injured patients don't matter, I think they hope we'll die from our untreated injuries - they knew I could have died from my very seriously injured throat and the long-term infection in it. Does everyone think that's OK and if not who's doing what to change this?
P.S. Oh and my vision is getting worse, when my eyes are tired I get sort of holes in my vision, it feels like the nerves (signals?) get worn out and fade away - same for other nerves/muscles in my body, so many areas have lost sensation now. Over 14 years waiting for truth/info & appropriate care, too late for me now really. Yes, I'm scared...
You are a product of your environment. Rowena Kostello would agree with you and noone wants to buy the ugly car or live in the ugly house so to dismiss aesthetics of art whether attractive or unattractive is exactly that, dismissive. Should making things be beautiful be the reason for art not so sure. It really doesn't need any justification beyond sincere personal expression. It is the collectors and the press that make it bullshit not the artists. That's the ugly part.
