SUBORIGINAL ART DEFINITION

SUBORIGINAL ART

PRIMITIVE-POST MODERN 

Suboriginal is the term I have come out with to describe a contemporary genre of art

The first phase being Psychic Automatism, Hands draw with no conscious direction

The absence of the mind’s attention while fingers move with pen over a sheet of paper

As eyes scrutinize this action the mind occupied elsewhere, the subconscious in play.

The following phase is a digital touch up once the original drawing has been scanned

Thus Suboriginal painting has two opposite ends, the art is the fusion of two extremes

Raw nature, when no intention, no purpose is present, the unconscious domain

Analyzing the original scribble, decoding, completing an initial derived impression.

SUBORIGINAL ART is the meeting point of Primitive - Modern, casual at the start

Once computerized the scribble is analyzed, the image elaborated to a level of clarity

Abstract Expressionism derived from automatism, the final image is but a print.

SUBORIGINAL PSYCHIC AUTOMATISM

I am really not as complicated as it looks
This is the visual tongue I often transmit
Subtle revelation from subconscious self
In the raw, without the slightest intention
An inbred inclination finding satisfaction.

In my dream I have been painting pictures like this

Yet it has been awkward to salvage once I wake up.

I don’t wish to imitate,.. but I have been able of late

Let it paint itself without any conscious deliberation.

ARTIST'S STATEMENT

What matters is the spontaneous, the impulsive!

My drawings become what they turn out to be,

as in poetry, the lines animate, the forms rhyme. 

All is constantly changing as it is being created 

When it is over it goes on changing and living 

according to the state of mind and perception

of the person who would be looking at it. 

VISCERAL

Reflections from the dark side

Alcoves where shadows hide

Eyes closed, mind open wide

Dreamer’s slide in lucid glide

Chartless map, visceral guide.

TIME DELAY VINDICATION

Safe module in cyberspace
only a password can locate
a device which will contain
crucial information in hand
released in precise domain
through time delay process
a covert, planned operation
focused on selected target
martyr seeking vindication
assured ultimate retribution
deriving latent satisfaction.

LUCIDLY SUBORIGINAL

The threshold of the tongue of fast moving twister

In my dream I have been painting pictures like this

Yet it has been difficult to salvage once I’m awake

I don’t wish to imitate.. but I have been able of late

Let it paint itself impromptu as I am sleep drawing.

RETARD GENIUS

An unborn child saw it coming
the fetus of a retarded genius
hard luck may make life tough
aborted just in the nick of time 
before the going turned rough.

SLIDE

Reflections from the dark side

Alcoves where shadows hide

Eyes closed, mind open wide

Dreamer’s slide in lucid glide

Chartless map, visceral guide.
