Susan Cornelis and me are starting now a common project with the name “Fantascapes”. Each of us, independently from each other but led by this same theme will present you alternatively and gradually our work in our blogs. We haven´t seen each other´s works until now, we will discover it gradually together with our readers. The series is not finished yet, we are both right now in the creative process and it might be that while discovering our work, we get mutually influenced and inspired by each other.
This common project is a wonderful and exciting adventure, and I hope you will follow us on our journey.
“Bad Herbs”
I go away. I know, nothing original as a famous French writer did it before me and claimed it in a book with the equivalent French title “Je m´en vais”. but this shouldn´t impede me to go and to shout it to the world, should it?
But while he goes and leaves everything behind him, I take everything with me. My Love, my Mac, my colours, my brushes, my memories and my dreams. I go south. It might not be the migration season but I don´t care, I can´t stand it anymore. it is starting raining and blowing gales again here, and the bad herbs grow higher and ever faster.
Higher than the telephone masts, higher than the respect of each other, higher than Morals.
Higher than the Good it is the Bad which they reach, always, everywhere. I refuse to let them invade my Being but I refuse too to declare war on them, not willing to become a bad herb myself. So I take my things and I go away, there, to this tiny little part of the world, where the bad herbs still die under my feet..
