Archived some of the paintings done back in October, they're finally dry. This one I haven't put up online before. Maybe its time to 'immortalise' it.
It has the appearance of some sort of sweeping landscape. Like solid fire. 'Culture was transformed from a stimulant into a tranquilliser' - Zygmunt Bauman with 'Man's almost infinite appetite for distractions' - Aldous Huxley "The Czechs had been lucky to have such hapless apparatchiks running the entertainment industry. People got bored easily and turned to politics instead. Where new media and the Internet truly excel is in suppressing boredom. Today's Czechs watch the same Hollywood movies as today's Belarusians. The only difference is that the Czechs already had a democratic revolution. Meanwhile, the Belarusians were not so lucky; the prospects of their democratic revolution in the age of YouTube look very grim'.
