"The universe rains within our brain & verses reign over our yelling hearts. Words through consonants are magic. Deconstruct language. Combine shapes & forms; and set ablaze the enlightened page. To fulfil your eyes with light is to awake. Thorough dreams, minds speak to express symbolistic selfless shapes. Through letters, mathematics, or alchemy : Words connect and bind to each vowel. Disappear the images of thoughts. The rotary stars connect neurology with the innermost cosmic lights that bind us gigantically with the smallest seeds of shapes and forms."

March, 2020.
The future.
Khamilabsu AB sent me a message.
We’ve been talking once in a while, over the years.
He talks in a very ambiguous way.
But this time he have a proposal,
He wanted to commission me for an artwork.
He had some money he can spend.
I agreed.
The sum of money could only last me a month.
Maybe less.
This is way below my usuals.
I dont care.
Rule numero uno,
ART IS NOT FOR MONEY.
The brief,
OSIRIS.
So i went on, tinkering with ideas.
Imagining subjects and objects.
Figuring composition and story.
Studying symbolism and metaphors.
Coding messages and scriptures
It took me a month before i actually start to put pencil on paper.
Out came a sketch. A very rough one.
Then I start to put in the work.
With an Intuos stylus in my hand,
I started to craft the image of an ancient god,
Using computer and technology.
Here’s the whole process,
More than 20 hours of footages,
Spread across a month worth of work,
Cramped into a 12mins video.
Absu,
A poet,
A parolist,
A spoken words artist,
Naturally lend his gift for the video.
His voice set the tone for my visual.
It has been a challenge.
To have enough words for 12 mins.
We worked back & forth,
Trying French and English,
Silence and music.
Enjoy the presentation,
Observe the visual,
Look at the numbers,
Read the sentences,
Listen to the words.
Imagine the beginning of time.
Imagine the age of Egyptians
Imagine the age of prophets
Imagine the age of singularity
Imagine the age of aliens
Imagine the end of time
Imagine 1928
Imagine 1984
Imagine 3028
It is all meant to be ambiguous.
It is a surrealistic experience.
It is art that provides.
Spread this nonsense.
For the nonsense will make us think.
I just fed you,
People.
