Las Meninas (La Familia) - after Velázquez II.
Oil on canvas, W 135 x H 155 x D 2.2 cm.
Applying a suitable Lorentz transformation for spacetime coordinates, subsequent events in one coordinate system can correspond to simultaneous events in another one or vice versa. What we live as a linear happening of subsequent events, our life let’s say, it can equally be just part of a timeless (~ simultaneous) being. Self definition casts a shadow of thriving, achieving, goal setting and reaching something. Observing the process of enfolding on the other hand pushes through nothingness so that only what is being, remains. Standing with Velázquez in a simultaneous moment of the illusion of spacetime and selfhood, I surrender to the fire of love that manifests as close as you can be blind of.
