The brain is nourished by reaction and experience; it lives on experience. But experience is always limiting and conditioning; memory is the machinery of action. Without experience, knowledge and memory, action is not possible but such action is fragmentary, limited. Reason, organized thought, is always incomplete; idea, response of thought, is barren and belief is the refuge of thought. All experience only strengthens thought negatively or positively. Experiencing is conditioned by experience, the past. Freedom is the emptying of the mind of experience. When the brain ceases to nourish itself through experience, memory and thought, when it dies to experiencing, then its activity is not self-centred. It then has its nourishment from elsewhere. It is this nourishment that makes the mind religious.

Wow I'm so glad I found you on here. I'm definitely a fan of your entire aesthetic right away, and thanks to you I found Jan Saudek whose photography is mind-blowing specifically for the era it was done.
There is an over-arching style in all of your stuff, but this one feels almost like a Salvatore Dali scene also with feelings of H.R. Geiger, and somehow also reminds me of one of my favorite artists Rauschenberg. Keep up the good work, you are very talented.
