Right now I’m working on a series of ideas about creating images for “new” or different myth. The images themselves have no history or reference, although they may be inspired by other myths since they come from someone familiar with them. I have my own story for each, but that doesn’t matter.
“Allegory of the Void”
This is titled after my own perception. The way I see it, despite science, at some point something must have come from nothing. So the allegory is that of the birth of “something-ness” [represented by the child] from the void.
Why is the child in a weird space-plant? The void is nothingness, it can’t have it’s own womb. But it is connected by a cord, which nourishes the child. The void is itself attached to the plant. What is the plant? Don’t know, but the image was a very insistent one. A sun burns on one side and a black hole slowly consumes it on the other, and this is my version of balance.
