K.Auznieks on the new work
There are silences that sit on top of a hill and those that awkwardly await sound; brooding ones in deep water; aftermaths of hours past. When is the time ripe for silence to soar?
It ascends when you do good unto other, when a smile dances alive, when flowers shower because you have embraced nothingness, your liberty becomes exemplary and your ecstasy is overflowing, free of all doing. When you know arising and passing away with every atom and when eyes, cast down, still meet others humbly, unassumingly, and nothing is asked but given is all, that old condition of simplicity. It flies when you forgive all (for they do not know), when you are large, complete, yet ever-expansive, moving toward subtler and subtler spider-web threads. Silence has always been midair, lightweight, not waiting but present, ready; have you had the eyes to meet it?
Beige, with a hint of carmine, ink lands in an open book which is the mind.
