Hilma af Klint - The Swan, No. 04, Group IX-SUW (1915)

The elitist art world makes me absolutely sick with its deference to wealth and gross eagerness to flow wherever capital flows, not to mention the art-washing and tax-evading of the great contemporary "collectors," from the Sacklers to the guy who keeps TB tests artificially expensive.
But god I love visual art so much. It helps me so much. It helps me get to the places language cannot take me.

Hilma af Klint.
Spiritual art. I can't fully understand it but i love that it's not about intellect but about intuition. Like the pictures can wake you up to some sacred knowlege if you're willing.
Something about overcoming darkness. Spirit descends to matter. Matter rises to the spirit. Light and Darkness, male and female.
How to be in balance. The Alchemy of Life. How to be a human being, what a task.
Probably i should try again to read "The alchemical wedding", does is have to be painful?
