Rummage in the past
2 min read
Dear Watchers,
For past months I was writing a lot about changes and development of my artistic vision. And although I was talking, writing and thinking about it, my actions witnessed against it. You may ask 'why?'. Why was I so lazy? Or... Why did I need so much time for passing my own inner rubicon? I think that I need more time, more emotions, more moments of crisis. I wasn't so sure about the direction of my metamorphosis. Wordpress work was not helping at all, because all I was doing was practically thinking about photos in series. I still like it, but it doesn't work at all on deviantart page. It doesn't work also when it comes to creating the photography I always wanted. That's why I am gonna try something new.
Of course I won't leave wordpress after 101 showoffs, I am going to continue my work in that place, but I am planning to crush the axis of symmetry between deviantart & wordpress blog. I am trying to think about this place as a virtual exhibition, without series. Only with individual works. So... let me begin my changes with quote by Albert Einstein, who said that all that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded the individual.
Please, let me know what You think about changes. Every comment is valuable.
PS. Still, every Saturday I invite You to Wordpress Site for new updates. Fell invited also to watch me on Facebook and Instagram.
Yours,
Catherine M. Gabrielle

Autumn
2 min read
That time of year thou mayst in me behold,
When yellow leaves, or none, or few do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruined choirs where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou seest the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death's second self that seals up all in rest.
In me thou seest the glowing of such fire
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie
As the death-bed whereon it must expire,
Consumed with that which it was nourished by.
This thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well which thou must leave ere long.
Ujrzysz we mnie tę porę roku, gdy zielone
Liście żółkną i rzedną, aż żadnego nie ma
Na drżącym z zimna drzewie, którego koronę
Wypełniał śpiew, lecz dzisiaj pusta jest i niema.
We mnie ujrzysz ten schyłek dnia, gdy resztka słońca
Gaśnie z wolna, sprawiając, że dzień od zachodu
Pochłania krok po kroku ciemność gęstniejąca,
Noc, ów sobowtór śmierci, kres trosk i zawodu.
We mnie ujrzysz powolne ognia dogasanie,
Żar, który swoją młodość, grę płomieni żwawą,
Obrócił w popiół — własne śmiertelne posłanie,
Gdzie skona, tym strawiony, co było mu strawą.
Ujrzysz — lecz zaczniesz odtąd, zwykłym serca prawem,
Kochać goręcej to, co stracić masz niebawem.
/W. Shapespeare "Sonnet 73" - ENG/POL, translated by Stanisław Barańczak /

Spring time

New season, new inspiration, new desires, new plans...
'Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past in holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?' /Mary Manin Morrisey/
'Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.' /Anais Nin/
As usual I invite You to visit my Wordpress Site, Instagram and of course - my Facebook account !
I appreciate all of Your support, my Friends. I appreciate Your attention, Your kind words, Your silent presence.
Thank You so much for that!
Yours,
Catherine M. Gabrielle
