The King of Realism ...

Ron Mueck is an Australian artist who has no formal training in fine Arts.Before becoming a fine artist he worked for twenty years in children's television, motion picture special effects, and advertising. He now lives and works in London.His work is quite fascinating.I am sure that his ultrarealism produces staggering hits of wowie-zowieness

Newsweek critic Peter Plagens lauded Mueck as "the best thing to happen to figurative sculpture in ... generations." Topping that, a cover story for Modern Painters raved that Mueck was "the equal of Vermeer." Others aren't as enamored. Critics have branded him "a one-hit wonder" or snobbishly dismissed him as a "model maker." One naysayer told me, "He's a phenomenon that should be cut off at the knees." Another decried his work as "a cheap shot." But is Mueck that different from his British cohorts who also deal with hyperrealism?

Even though there may be nothing more flavorless or enervating than sheer mimicry, for better and for worse, realism is what this generation of British artists excels at.

There's still no one saying goodbye
Though another year has gone by

Laahasil......

What is she going to learn from broke? It’s not like she was a spendthrift before....

When the laughter drained, more quickly than either of them were now prepared for , along silence ensured, a silence that refused to be broken, that paralyzed both of them even as it insisted that something be done ….
You never get to have what you had…. Things change whether u want them or not….. You kind of forced them … You decided you wanted something ,and, like always------

Never mind about everything .Lets go back to where we were.. But she knows-knows it because she does love him that much- that it cannot be so easy yet......

these had taken the form of crimes of the tongue , or crimes of silence-things said or left unsaid –and perhaps words lose their force, just dry up and blow away after a certain amount of time, or alter their characters, changing from arrows and slights to dust bunnies of other things-one persons hearts desire refused to him or her , yet freely, even carelessly, given to another - perhaps time turns these to memories and than to words , and these, too , are
s-c-a-t-t-e-r-e-d….

she ( screaming silently):- U never tried to hear her silence before like today .......AND u believe in silence....

how can u read her silence , when u can't read her words.........
AND

ye kaisi muahbbet hai tumahri ......
ye kaisi muahbbet hai tumahri.......






( break the ice .... ) remember......words are the supporting elements for silence..... say it... they are to be valued too ........before its too late........ .

....

Learning to draw and paint.Most amusing.Probably the only subject on offer that she didn't need because she could already do it.Well, used to be able to do it... Her early dreams of being a painter seemed like an embarassing first crush, a piece of folly best forogtten .....

Devoting herself to the glory of colour and shape in solitude , the world outside no more than fibres for her to spin into images...Alone, the patterns of her thoughts would be clear and vibrant, shockign the virgin paper with their boldness, her brush caressing and seductive ....She snorted at herself:- Saint Bella of the Divine brushstrokes........

UNKNOWN PATH.....

Isn’t it strange when two strangers become the best of friends but isn’t it really sad when the best of friends become two strangers



What is the answer?



...[Silence]...

Huh?


*sighs*



BREAK THE ICE ….. no more, in between the lines …
(Screaming Silently)




I miss u dadi , I wish you would have not left me that soon , life would have been a lot different from today and much easier . I know you would have lend a hand on my behalf like u first did for me , we were late, but , now I don’t want to make the same mistake …



I love u n I miss u badly ………..

GRADUATION ......

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives,
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause were on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cuz you don't have another day


Cuz we're moving on and we cant slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June,
I didnt know much of love but it came too soon.
And there was me and you and well we got real blue,
Stay at home talking on the telephone, with me,
We'd get so excited and we'd get so scared,
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair...

And this is how it feels...

As we go on,
We remember,
All the times we,
Had together,
And as our lives change,
Come whatever,
We will still beFriends Forever...


So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money,
When we look back now will our jokes still be funny?,
Will we still remember everything we learned in school,
Still be trying to break every single rule?(every rule)
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, keep thinking that its not goodbye,(not goodbye)
Keep on thinkin its our time to fly



And this is how it feels...

As we go on,
We remember,
All the times we,
Had together,
And as our lives change,
Come whatever,
We will still beFriends Forever


Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow? (somehow)
I guess I thought that this would never end,
AND SUDDENLY IT'S LIKE WE'RE WOMEN AND MEN
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us round?
Or will these memories fade when I leave this town?,
I keep, I keep thinking that its not goodbye
Keep on thinking its our time to fly...

As we go on,
We remember,
All the times we,
Had together,
And as our lives change,
Come whatever,
We will still beFriends Forever...

Beautifuly Broken.....

Her suffering and pain made her sad and gloomy…

All She craved was living, what made her die soon


Her last thing went without saying… The notion that she was incapable of it, could be hindered either by herself or anyone else bringing it forth, was inconceivable to her. True, sitting at this very desk just a moment before – and not for the first time – she looked out in to the garden that was covered with the clothes of darkness and snow, than imagined looking back upon her self : a woman , framed in a window , pen in hand , pen to paper, writing, framed, ,inevitably , not just by the window but by the conception , a phrase, “ a room of one’s own “


She didn’t need a room of her own. She already had one she’d bought it to her self… Her waiting of long years has given her nothing but more soreness, more suffering, she says something he listens something, hears what she is not saying and not hear what she has been trying to say for last couple of years... He leaves her all over again for a second time facing to suffer in pain, in agony , he makes her guilty for everything , blame her for what , to be not something he wants her to be or waiting for him, Wants her to hear in between the lines. IS He trying to take her for granted again, She tries to make him happy in every possible way. Ready to take all his worries with smiling face, u be concerned for them and in revisit they will smack you on your face… Its not about thinking but about looking and feeling .Love is like a bird.. let it fly… free it …He now walks with head high in the air… with proud and dignity, coz he know, in spite of what ever way he treats her or can treat her show will always be there with an open smiling invitation…. But one thing he doesn’t know….. she has learned how to hide her pearls dropping down from necklace..

Her tears dried, or perhaps evaporated…she looked out at the view. She was a long way from the bottom… And than she realized what she was finally seeing-the inverted cone… the vaporous pit with its terraces and balconies and concentric rings for each species of the object.....


It is strange , how things copy them selves against all human reason or intention ,refract into symbols we can make no sense of – derive no truth from –but only arrange into patterns to amuse or bedevil ourselves with how little we know , with how great is our remove from every created thing, even our selves…


So irony really is the only truth now….

A room of her own

It was not that she felt empty. It was there were so manay choices about how to feel , and there were the feelings about the feelings. which multiplied themselves-refracted-infinite….. first she wanted him , he went, now he is back she wants to go now… she is running from the reality now… Now, only there was a hole in her original thesis for the essay she had never written….

Stories still linger, incomplete , untitled..........

Thoughts to Ponder...

* You cant love people unless you know how to love yourself....

*Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.....

In Between The Lines....

There's nothing funny left to say.No water running in the stream.Everything I touched was golden.Everything I loved got broken.I like to sleep beneath the trees.Have the universe at one with me.Look down the barrel of a gun.And feel the Moon replace the Sun.Everything we've ever stolen.Has been lost returned or broken.No more dragons left to slay.Every mistake I've ever made.Has been rehashed and then replayed.As I got lost along the way.

No more Silence NOW.....

LIke a dream i cannot explain .TIme will show me how..Suddnely everything has turned me inside out. it was a crazy thing... Sudeenly someones comes and togetther you sing a song and music is all that take control.But i am left all alone in between the lines...

Save me...

Sve me from drowning....
