just a cupful of art

egoisme
Experimenting with form and distortion in mirror image, meaningless or thought-provoking? The creative process itself is enough to consider the project a success. Whether you like it or not should not matter, creativity is an act of positive egoism. © E n i s ∞ r song: We’re Not Adult Orientated – Stereolab

thin out
The fleeing impatience, like a nagging vibration, and the unrelenting discontent—the ruler of a space too small for both. © E n i s ∞ r song: The Thin Wall – Ultravox

goodwill hunting
A wise bird never reveals its entire plumage—only now and then a single feather, as a gesture of goodwill, a sign from above to never lose heart. © E n i s ∞ r song: Won’t Get Fooled Again – The Who

Inner Peacefulness
Despite its depth, the spiritual landscape also has its share of blur; it’s a matter of putting on a different pair of glasses. In its constant change, it offers a fresh perspective.Don’t be blinded. Success isn’t about striving for more and better. It’s about seeing yourself clearly, knowing you’re okay, knowing you’re worthy of being

lost at arrival
Somewhere it stops — it ends. Not here, but somewhere far away, unreachable.What once was ….closed, is now untouchable. Only memories remain, memories that distort over time and will never be the complete truth.A message once born will die again along the way. © E n i s ∞ r song: Sit Around the Fire

doodles
It’s playful, without any real meaning but often born from combinations. I call it making photodoodles — searching for strange combinations, often staged, sometimes spontaneous, with filters and sepia effects, which were the trend in Instagram’s glory days. You grab your phone and ‘shoot.’ Instant, spontaneous, and creative. It often results in something funny, something

Judgments
To look and to be seen, in the private, the eternally flickering judgment.Those who create never see the other side but only hear their own self-criticism from time to time… Looking without judgment is an art in itself. © E n i s ∞ r song: Circle – Jon Hopkins Who claims to live without

Sandcastle
At the edge of early morningI built a castle made of goldwith towers greeting newborn sunlightand moats in quiet ancient cold. But from afar there came the breathingof the sea that slowly nearedher fingers silver salted driftingtouched the work that I held dear. One wave a soft and foaming arcmade trembling walls give way.A second

make way
There’s always that imaginary Damocles sword — the judgement that hits you the moment you choose your own way.But this time, I’m tossing my imaginary hat into the air.It’s always just scraps for the seagulls. © E n i s ∞ r song: All I really Want – Alines Morissette Self-determination is choosing your own

re play
I see people do the most extraordinary things, pure creativity — musical, acting, writing, inventing. Most of it is simply play, pure experimentation. All these people have in common that they followed their passion to such a point that luck, and meeting the right people who granted them the benefit of the doubt, allowed them

trick or treat?
Halloween Secretly, we find ‘scary’ somewhat appealing. You know it doesn’t exist, but still, that kick of fear ripples through your veins, a thrill in itself. © E n i s ∞ r song: Lullaby – The Cure Beneath the mask a shadow creep, the monster smiles, waiting for midnight to awaken things that never

secondhand bookstore
As soon as you step over the threshold and the tinkling doorbell rings, you suddenly enter another dimension. Even the smell is different, vaguely musty like old paper. The atmosphere is quiet and weighty, as if heavy words or biting sentences are hanging in the air, each one vying for your attention. It’s the idea

regret
Regret is like pole vaulting. I should have chased you, blown you off your feet, and used all my charm. The bar was set high, and I gave it a good shot, but I slipped under it and landed on the mat. Turns out someone else had just made a higher jump. © E n

blow down
Remains of Castle Nuwendoorn, a stronghold of Floris V of Holland. Built in 1282 I come from the Low Countries, where reed, ditch, and dike give the wind free rein. Where clouds drift by like herds across the sky. © E n i s ∞ r song: Love Blow Down – Elbow When your love
