T.A.E.’s Art Reviews – Palestine Three

The piece presents a stark, poster-like confrontation between bodily intimacy and graphic reduction. Composed primarily of a textured field divided between a warm, gold-beige plane and a colder, dark vertical mass, the image reads less as a scene than as an arresting visual argument: a figure is present, but the painterly problem is not likeness—it … Continue reading T.A.E.’s Art Reviews – Palestine Three

T.A.E.’s Art Reviews – Palestine Two

Key Findings The composition features a stark contrast between the pale, textured facial plane and a deep, saturated crimson background, heightening the emotional urgency. The artist employs a heavily cracked, impasto technique that suggests the subject is weathered, archaic, or perhaps crumbling under internal pressure.

“The Clock Is Screaming: Don’t Waste Your Damn Life” (Revisionist Shakespeare – Sonnet 12 for Gen X)

When I check the clock and watch the damn hours fly,I see another day just fade into the night;The old trees stand there, waving their last goodbye,As summer’s fire gets swallowed out of sight. I watch my flowers lose their fresh-faced glow,Their colours crash and fade like yesterday’s trends;I see my younger years pack up … Continue reading “The Clock Is Screaming: Don’t Waste Your Damn Life” (Revisionist Shakespeare – Sonnet 12 for Gen X)
