Carved this piece after the grape harvest this past summer. Growing and sharing food is a true pleasure that everyone should have access to. 🌱🍇❤️‍🩹

A green linocut print on white paper. A bunch of grapes (flame) dangles in the foreground with a bit of a glow. A curlicue of vine pokes out at the top near the stem. The background shows parts of large grape leaves in various positions around/behind the grapes.

Breaking alliance is not a big deal!

Stop Imperialism!
Don’t touch Greenland!

I love the energy in his expression. It's interesting to me because these old Ukiyo-E prints aren't meant to be realistic, or they didn't hold realism up as a necessary quality, and yet there is enough there that it feels really consistent. In some of them the design is almost abstract and it takes me a while to figure out what is meant to be happening. In this one there is so much billowing fabric that I had no idea what his feet were doing at first, I think I have it now.

Look at that face. He's hunched up and squirming, so powerful are the forces in play 😁

a man in elaborate traditional costume is holding a sword and is depicted in a pose like he's trying to flex all of his muscles at once, a sort of hunched-over crouch. His face and free hand are clenched and twisted. Around him swirls water and a snake or dragon

There is no new south: just different dances with the same ghosts. Print is illustrated with red copperheads at the top and vultures on the bottom.

Wenn wir schon heute wüssten was morgen ist, gäbe es keine neuen Ideen, Erfindungen wären unnötig und die Freiheit des Denkens wäre ein unerwünschtes Element.

If we already knew today what tomorrow would bring, there would be no new ideas, inventions would be unnecessary, and freedom of thought would be an unwelcome element.

Spätestens mit der Erfindung der Buchhaltung, vor mehr als 5000 Jahren, war Kontrolle durch Dokumentation ein wichtiges Ziel funktionierender Gesellschaften. Schwärzen, also unleserlich machen, von Teilen dieser Dokumentationen war nicht denkbar, nicht im Interesse der Gesellschaft. Erst als Mächtige ihr Versagen, ihre Untaten und Verbrechen gegen die Gesellschaft austilgen wollten, wurde Schwärzen, Löschen, Überschreiben von Teilen des dokumentierten zur billigen Methode des Machterhalts. Bis heute! Sehr präsent! Sehr gesellschaftsschädlich! Aktive Täuschung! Ich klage an.

At the latest with the invention of accounting more than 5,000 years ago, control through documentation became an important goal of well-functioning societies. Blacking out, i.e., rendering parts of this documentation illegible, was unthinkable and not in the public interest. It was only when those in power wanted to erase their failures, misdeeds, and crimes against society that blacking out, deleting, and overwriting parts of the documentation became an acceptable method of staying in power. To this day! Very present! Very harmful to society! Active deception! I accuse.

Januar 2026 „Hold me, I‘m cold“ Halte mich, mir ist kalt. Sehr kalt und es wird immer kälter. Kann Kunst diese Kälte stoppen? Nein! Aber ich kann sagen, dass es mir kalt ist und andere Menschen können das auch sagen. Wir kommen zusammen, schenken uns Wärme der Gruppe, genießen das Wachstum der Gruppe, genießen die wachsende Wärmeenergie. Bis wir die ganze Welt erwärmen. Traum und Utopie. Aber mehr als einen Versuch wert.

Ein Kunstobjekt an dem lange gearbeitet wird, das vielleicht nie fertig wird, sich verändert und über Kälte spricht. Hold me, I‘m cold.

January 2026 "Hold me, I'm cold." It's very cold, and it's getting colder. Can art stop this cold? No! But I can say that I'm cold, and other people can say so too. We come together, give each other the warmth of the group, enjoy the growth of the group, enjoy the growing warmth energy. Until we warm the whole world. Dream and utopia. But definitely worth more than one try.

An art object that has been worked on for a long time, that may never be finished, that is changing and talks about coldness. Hold me, I'm cold.

What's on my mind? uh, profit as a destructive force in human relationships, drama that obscures that reality #venezuela

Sea Bream, Bakufu Ono

feeling like a sea bream with all the water falling out of the sky around here. These prints are so elegantly done, I really appreciate the careful work. Fish faces are amazing. I guess they don't have eyelids? they never sleep. or maybe they sleep when the sun goes down. The rotation of the earth is their eyelid 😆
