Your illuminated rose irradiates the light from within and attracts the light around. Does our thirst of light also create darkness? Do we drink all the light there is to shine more in the dark? Could our inner light shine without darkness? In a text I wrote some days ago, I say that "the only purpose of darkness is to show the light". When I try to find a symbolic synthesis of what I seek in life, I always arrive to the same answer: LIGHT. Darkness is amorphous, monolithic, nihilist repetition of nothing, apocalyptic sight, endless denial of reality itself. From darkness nothing more can arise than more and more darkness until all the memory of light fades and nothing more is left. Your rose reminded me of the reasons why I love so much the light... philosophical and ethical reasons but also the human reasons that come from the experiences of life.
Did you ever walk all alone in a burned field, away from any houses or human beings, walking without seeing the ground, just looking avidly to the horizon in search of a light, a tiny light in the distance?
I went through that experience when I was 15/16 years old. The details of that long walk in the darkness still seem to me something that happened to another person in a movie not to me. It's amazing how our brains work when we experience extreme fear... That was one of the many times that I was able to save myself from the darkness, real darkness. I guess that we all have illuminated roses in our minds to help us to find the way to the light. May these roses shine forever. This one was inspiring.
Forgive me the biographical note, but I'm not an artist, a photographer, an expert in anything, I can just speak about what I see, feel and live.
