Studio, Corona and visions of extasy
The Virus Corona hit me hard in the beginning of march and I had to stay isolated in the studio without any contacts with the outside world for five weeks. I was doing the christian fasting which was interestingly in the same time, not eating much food, no alcohol, sex, etc... and I was reading about the christian monks in Egypt who follows the path of Saint Anthony. For those not familiar with christian iconography it is the Saint who had to fight the demons so often depicted in art.
When you get cut off of the outside world for so long, you get really aware of your thinking and the images that are there. These becomes omnipresent in your reality, almost like daydreams or visions. Despite my physical weakness I was able to paint and draw and therefore record some of them.
