Then, when the avocados dozed, they sucked them from the Olympic flame, and when those blackened people realized the Olympic flame was impossible, they smoked it, and smoked every soul hair we had, which flowed like a waterfall from our tongues. Those eyes didn't sweat evenly when they cried.
And still, they play themselves verse litres, which plumbed from the soundless ghost of a guitar or the turtle ukulele.
Then they swam the Olympic flame, and tongues burned, and their hearts danced when the cisterns realized they would not be able to catch the Olympic flame.
When you cry, you burn the impossible, and when you swallow the Olympic flame, it becomes dark.

Paintings done in 2016 for an art theory class in grad school, in response to the dadaist Hugo Balls' "Tenderenda der Phantast." It's, uhhhh. It sure is a book! (Look, you either jive with Dadaism or you don't and if I tell you that there is no "page" I can link you explaining about the book because it is that obscure in the grand scheme of things--the best I can do is a World Cat entry: https://search.worldcat.org/title/50271954 )
I drew all of these on tracing paper w/ non-photo blue pencil, then I inked and painted the back of these papers like cels. Each one was then glued onto a painted canvas where I basically just painted the background according to the subject. (So the first one looks cleaner due to the solemnity, the second one looks chaotic due to the subject matter, etc.) Really, I just wanted to imitate cel painting :P That part didn't work out but I like the accidental craft effect. Matches the movement, after all. :ai_holy:
All the paintings are based on strict descriptions directly from the book, with added context either pertaining to Ball or references to other existing things, past or present. I think I tried to aim for a painting per chapter but I can't remember anymore. There's six and here are the first four:
The Violet-Faced Seer, who uses a magnifying glass to trick laypeople (with my own response to my #1 awful cult of all time)
Mulche-Mulche, the Mother of Dada, with her Mister Fetus and the "Birth of Dada" in the form of a "little Jew" (aka Tristan Tzara) (yes, you read that right, don't blame me lmao)
Johann the Hobbyhorse (whose origin are metaphors, and referenced from Ball's stepdaughter Annemarie who he adored very much, you can still fight me on this)
Dagny, the bride to a fish, who knew of fishmaking (reference to Emmy, Ball's wife, who was good with fishes, plus Dagny was her pseudonym)

~ A Black Friday Sales Event ~
This Eldritch Dadaist Absurdist Agitprop has been sponsored by
The Noir Gnosis Pheasant Agitators Theatre
The blend of Leninist Agitprop and Lovecraftian inspired Occultism/Mysticism, seemed like an interesting jumping off point for some Dadaist messing about. The fact that this week, Eldritch Friday is also Black Friday, creates additional context to play with. The madness of rampant/rabid consumerism seems close to the madness of those who look too deeply into the abyss of cosmic horror. Is Agitprop that different from the fake news, advertising, and spam that crawls across the internet (The Hounds of Tindalos braying from non-Euclidean corners and curves)?
An intercourse leaps beneath the industry. Hour cook coppers a violin. The awaited pose collapses with an advantage. Each serial official runs with the extremist existence. The advancing snack implements the concerto over a diplomatic console band.
Their daily routine includes fighting, playing with catharsis, and practising in the clouds.

Started a new project, because I couldn't just tidy the room. Instead of emptying the room of lots of paper in a quick efficient manner, I am now accumulating cut-up text, and use them to re-purpose the pages of word lists, to paste into a #DadaistArtJournal. 😂
My collage process is done with a scanner. A loose collage is placed on the scanner, and then further digital modifications or additions (borders) are completed.
