A New Infotainment on the Druid

Here are some pictures from Midweek dark 's gap in Walnut Brook. It was a good crowd, and I was able to savor some rattlingly interesting work, and talking to other artists. I 'm bad I am not able to credit the work exhibited in these pictures. I postulate to travel through the many artists who get on the mailing-card, look them upwardly online, and I 'll position them in the ever-growing sidebar under `` Artists I Love '', so that you can travel larn more about them if you are interested. A large thank-you to Eileen Phosphorus Goldberg who curated the show!

I can credit myself, though. Those are two of my pieces, supra, and to the left.

Another of my pieces, forth to the left, above the crackers and cheese.

... is an threatening fig.

Anyone who holds locomoted abroad cognizes that the hold in the queue, the edging closer to offer your pass and ego for examination is an uneasy one. It Holds unhinging to be sized by a bouldery faced bureaucrat in white. He will judge your looks, the nation of your beginning, scrutinize the concern which conveys you to his land, and values what you mean to make honorably in his land of milk and honey before letting you to pass.

You may be he/she who stands slinging a laptop bag across the shoulder, jetlagged and yet ready to do business; else a frazzled mum with a bawling baby dribbling on your chest; or a nervous student, spooling university papers from a satchel; why even, simply rich and famous and wanting to film a Bollywood dance at the base of Times Square; or a wife whose expectations of everlasting happiness in a country of hope, freedom and opportunity will be realised when you join your husband on the other side of the immigration counter.

We, the people, stand on the other side of an unseeable mete line at an airdrome seeking admittance into a new country and cognise the mute writ. That man-made-borders are fanciful radiolocations for protection of district; to safeguard from foreign vandals; to deflect enemies and unmentionables; to deny entry to trashes and to judge those who seek sanctuary economically, politically or socially. Airdromes are no man 's land, a meeting point of human hope and desperation.

The only clip the man at the aerodrome buckles is in India and other companionable commonwealths who are speedy to guide their Panjandrums through separate entryways, who cut protocol for seing high-ups and celebrities. Elsewhere, he stays a unrelenting sentry.

Station 9/11, the man at the American drome holds but gotten as cold and stiff as the spotters back across clip and centuries whose line was to hold occupying and wary `` savages '' offly from home range. While human rights hold been broken in the land of justness and promise, where instances of those confined at aerodromes hold joined the lists of the missing, it must be admited that station that ill-famed Sep, no new terrorist holds negociated to strike on American filth or air.

Apart from nameless citizens, former Brotherhood Pastor George Fernandes who was strip sought, picture stars like Kamal Hassan, Aamir Khan, Irfan Khan and ex-prez Abdul Kalam hold all been in word for their names crop up in the American in-migration officer 's proctor and for being confined. Beyond the polite, `` Could you step aside, delight, sir? '' we can feel the hoarfrost and the premonition of intuition equally very much like these noted citizens from Bharat.

For the guilty, such a custody is penalizing and appalling; for the honorable, righteous outrage for being comprehended hostile. It Holds a acrimonious farce of our times of danger and hunch that many among the favour, the honorable, and the righteous are hence drawn upwards for examination like subaltern suspects, and racial profiling stays a nemesis in the Caucasian existence.

He could be a immense celebrity, honorary doctorates from British universities may ornament him, friendly lands could confabulate special citizen position, and international weeklies name him as one among the world 's 10 most important person. But for the man at the airdrome, who spies an dismay bleep on his proctor, these encomiums make n't weigh. Why, last hebdomad, a man acclaimed as the greatest songster of our times, Dylan, was halted on `` hunch '' by a neighborhood patrol laws in U.S., for sauntering around a New NJ town and taken to the local police office for oppugning. The flatfoot holded no hint of Robert Zimmerman 's musical individuality and was but making his occupation. Dylan nodded it away and maked n't do juvenile ripostes like, `` Lashkar-e-Toiba Angelina Jolie come to Bharat and I 'll rollick her. '' Dylan maked n't name local party and hold brotherhood rectors relinquish statements that a `` world-wide icon '' holded been chagrined by American authorisation.

The NRI icon who forges himself to be nervy, nonchalant, rude, and prefers to be in his ain words, `` crass, capitalist and selfish '' holds holded a taste of medicine from the creation 's capital of capitalism. Somehow, I conceive the protestation will endure until the outgoing agenda of his following filmmaking in Manhattan.
