art objects - the fleeting world; bubbles in a stream

November 12, 2022 Still Life

At the seaside dreaming like a child

“When I was down beside the sea
A wooden spade they gave to me
To dig the sandy shore.

My holes were empty like a cup.
In every hole the sea came up,
Till it could come no more.”

(R.L. Stevenson in At the sea-side)

October 30, 2022 What has been left

Where a worker is turned into an art object

“You walk into the room
With your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked
And you say, “Who is that man?”
You try so hard
But you don’t understand
Just what you’ll say
When you get home”

(Bob Dylan in Ballad of a thin man)
Tilburg (NL)

When there were no dashcams yet

“You always said people don’t do what they believe in,
they just do what’s most convenient, then they repent
And I always said, “Hang on to me, baby, and let’s hope that the roof stays on””

(Bob Dylan in Brownsville girl)

I left you in a blind street

“When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I’ll be gone
You’re the reason I’m trav’lin’ on
Don’t think twice, it’s all right”

(Bob Dylan in Don’t think twice, it’s all right)

Game, set and match!

“Play ?
Yes !
Le bon serveur.
Comme il a de belles jambes !
Il a un beau nez.
Service coupé.
Game !”

(E. Satie in Le tennis)
