A flow of things

"In an instant, rise from time and space.
set the world aside and become a world within yourself."
(Shabistari)

Feels like the days are getting longer, not physically but with the amount of information within this little world. Sometimes when we breathe a second may seem five minutes, and five minutes a month... Getting all things into order, the trick has been to understand how it all make sense in the scheme of things. Sometimes I know, and sometimes I don't, what is to be, but the only thing that helps is not to stop the imagination.

Did some shopping and updated the 'workplace' today, gave me enough energy to dig around and find a gallery close to home with an exhibition. Went there and afterwards a cafe: was a decent little exhibition, liked the guy's outlook, and presentation was good by standards. Photographer's called Shahadat Parvez, a 30 something old Bengali photographer and photojournalist.



The event was called 'wayfarer of a hundred years', focusing mainly on a subject 'Momin Ali Mirdha' now an old man, with a reputation here as a traveller and is known throughout the region as 'the eternal grandfather.' Found there some interesting concepts in the photography mixing art and the subject and playing with perspectives.

Its refreshing to see creativity in this place and indeed all around us.
