Notes for a Retrospective
#1 Leaves falling from the Tree of Life : spring comes to the garden.
#2 The Big Bang : God throws his paintbox at the biggest blank canvas ever.
#3 Therapy : I found these patterns on the edge of nowhere.
Sunburst : a cancer cell emitting electromagnetic signals.
#4 The Tower of Babel : a tumour of a million cancer cells, all emitting their unique electromagnetic signals.
#5 Landscape without figures : we pick out the pieces which best fit the landscape we have within.
#6 This egg yolk is not an egg yolk, but a fungus : nothing came of it.
#7 Speak to the hand, the ears aint listening : Adam and Eve talking to their three children about the consequences of sin.
#8 Pornography : the three children put into practice what their parents told them.
#9 A string bag : the strings vibrate to the distortions of time and space.

You've given me so many new perspectives to ponder - should keep me quiet for hours!! Haha :D
Engaging as ever and, if it can be allowed as a definition: "positively, brightly disturbing".
Chuckles Dave! There's a lot of wit involved in creating these. And you took us along with varied offerings. Enjoyed them!

Oh my. Some of these I welcome, and some I can see their beauty but only in the abstract.
A stunning collection. Thank you.
Brian
Thanks Brian. My (younger) brother must have had almost as many surgeries for skin cancer. He's been having them seemingly continously over many years now.
In a waiting area of our area hospital there is a series of images of various cancers that are absolutely stunning. They go round two sides of a very large open-planned area. Apparently the thought is that if you can see your cancer in this way it has a positive effect. It was those images that I had in mind.
There is also a belief around that parts of a cell "talk" to each other using electro-magnetic waves and that these may also be used to "speak to" other cells.
Mary
Yup, understood and thanks!
Kelvin
