Description

You have seen I like to create series in which my Fractals creations can become illustrative argument and be font of discussion. So for example simulating Street Graffitis...Now I want to try a further step in order to create another font of discussion almost with those friends that have patience to "sustain" my images. Having to speak of Philosophy I start wit the ancient Greek Philosophers because origins can never be forgotten. The first I want to speak is Parmenides of Elea (about 500 A.C.). The reason is simply, He is much near to Vedic concepts that I particoularly love. In his Poem "The Way of Truth" (ALETHEIA) He explains how All is One, change is impossible, and existence is timeless, thus concluding "Is" could not have come to being, because "nothing come from nothing". Existence is necessarily ethernal. Why we perceive changments in reality? This is explained in the Second Poem: Truth cannot be known trhough sensory perception. Only pure Reason (Logos) will result in the understanding of the Truth of the World. This is because the perception of things or appearances (Doxa)is deceptive! Everyone who is interested in this linking Art-Philosophical Concepts can also write to my mail: info@divinalux.com

There is truth in the Ancients; there is also deception, because notthing can be known; nothing can be changed; nothing is nothing; everything is everything, yet nothing. Nothing is all.
