| Description |
"Finally things had lost their weightiness" byErik Pevernagie , oil on canvas, 100 x 80 cm x
In life, we have got to let loose sometimes, rather than indulging intractably in self-harm or self-mistreatment as we pursue impervious dreams. Weightiness can be the incarnation of a sense of responsibility. Responsibility can be very versatile and interpreted in many different ways. Everybody seems to have a different kind of reading of accountability. When the flood is submerging the entire country, no raindrop may feel responsible. However, the actual responsible will do whatever it takes to hold each droplet accountable when the stormwater inundates the fences of our living. Weightiness can be the demonstration of wisdom. It can be the outcome of an insightful reflection and the emanation of a quest for the sense of life. Gravity may mean coercion when we feel it as trouble or horrendous nuisance. Let us loosen, then, the balloons. Let us thrust aside, with a dash of poetry and inventiveness, all the "questions with a single answer" because the starkness of our imagination can earmark a bountiful timeline to conjure up a widening array of groovy and relevant replies to any impendent insidious questions. In any way, let us not be pinned down by ill-intentioned creatures with incongruent forethoughts because they might hinder us from breaking free from potential physical and spiritual bondage. Some use perverting "ambiguity" as their native language and prefer to hide behind a veil of para-social intrigue or deceit. They readily apply a strategy of a condescendingly friendly approach. Still, as we can capture arresting signals that urge us to defuse a dire threat of besiegement, we can decipher any shrouded or manipulative intentions and steer clear of unforeseen pitfalls. If we are not ready to let go of knotty and prickly issues in time, our mental frame can be wrecked before long. One must be prepared to get the monkey off the back soon enough and let things loose when they get stuffy. Lightness and gravity are part of our philosophy of life. They are essential options.

Français : Légèreté et pesanteur sont liés à une philosophie de vie. Ce sont des choix de vie. Ce tableau traduit la contradiction philosophique de légèreté et lourdeur. Pesanteur peut être un signe du sens de responsabilité. Elle peut être l'expression de maturité. Elle peut être le résultat d'une profonde méditation. Elle peut être l'émission d'une quête de sens dans la vie.
Mais pesanteur peut également conduire à un sentiment d'oppression lorsqu'elle est ressentie comme un fardeau: un fardeau insupportable. Alors le temps est venu de se libérer et de se défaire d'un environnement étouffant. Là, le moment est venu de lâcher les ballons, de ressentir l'air pure d'un vent nouveau et de se délivrer du sentiment de suppression de dépendance matérielle.
Nederlands: Lichtheid en zwaarte zijn gerelateerd aan een levensfilosofie. Dit zijn keuzes in de levensstijl. Het schilderij vertaalt de filosofische tegenstelling tussen lichtheid en zwaarte. "Gewicht en gewichtig" kunnen kunnen staan voor gevoel voor verantwoordelijkheid. Ze kunnen worden verklaard als zijnde een uiting van volwassenheid. Ze kunnen mogelijk het gevolg zijn van diepe meditatie of ze kunnen de expressie zijn van een zoektocht naar betekenis van het leven.
Maar zwaarte kan ook leiden tot een gevoel van verdrukking of onderdrukking wanneer het wordt ervaren als een last: een ondraaglijke last. Dan is de tijd gekomen om "los te laten" en zich te ontdoen van een benauwde, bedompte atmosfeer. Het is het ogenblik om de ballonnen van hun zwaarte te bevrijden. Een nieuwe wind komt dan aangewaaid en het drukkende gevoel van materiële afhankelijkheid lost zich op. |
