The Book of Questions

The Book Of Questions
What is a Thought? What is a Word? What is a Memory? What Am I? What Is Human? What is Life? What is God? Where is God? Who is God? What is Time? What is Space? What is Reality? What is a Mind? What is a Brain? What is a Soul? What is Love? What is Need? What is Desire? What is the Largest thing? What is the Smallest Thing? What Size Am I? What is Fear? What is Happiness? What is Emotion? What is a Question? What is a Visible Object? Where is Art? - The Book Of Questions is a series of 9 paintings or 'pages' each containing three questions 'written' within a coded sequence of nails, within a center black square. Surrounding the squares are explorations of the images and colors that often arise in my mind during meditation and contemplation of the specific questions. - The pieces are also intended to encourage a similar exercise within the viewer, who may, (with eyes closed), let fingers 'read' the questions, and allow associated colors and images be born in their own mind's eye.

It's taken me a while, but I finally decided how to do this. I've set up my yahoo calender to mail me each question, on a day, starting this coming monday. I plan to write about each question each day, and post what I write to my LJ. How do you want me to credit you for the questions?

I might put together a little 'zine from those writings. If I do, I'll get a copy to you.

WOW. I am so happy that you will be doing that! And looking forward to your writings! If you can link to my post with the paintings on it, that would be great! If not, it's no big deal...I'm just really happy that it inspired you!:):)
