LOVE





Photogram

Two eviscerated rabbits placed on photographic paper and exposed to a flash of light in a dark room. The colours result from the chemical interactions between the rabbits' viscera and the photo-paper. 

"The symbol of opening ourselves up in love, of suffering and sacrifice, and being emptied out when you lose it."

Love Salad


A sexy purple-red colour salad of Yotam Ottolenghi to celebrate love with its real flavours: bitter and sweet. WOW!
Ingredients:
lots of red things:
2 blood oranges
110 ml blood orange juice
20 ml lemon juice
60 g maple syrup
1 pinch salt
1/2 tsp orange blossom water
1/2 small radicchio, leaves separated
1 small red endive, leaves separated
1 handful small red leaves
1 tsp olive oil
coarse sea salt and black pepper
150 g good quality ricotta cheese
20 g pinenuts, toasted
100 g pomegranate seeds (from 1 small fruit)

Start by making an orange syrup. Cut the top and bottom of each orange, then cut down the sides, following the fruit's natural lines, to remove the skin and white pith. Hold the fruit over a small bowl and cut in between the membranes, thereby removing the individual segments. Put these into the bowl. Squeeze any remaining juices from the fruit into a small saucepan, then add enough juice to bring it up to 110ml. Add the lemon juice, syrup and a pinch of salt, and bring to a light simmer. Leave to reduce for 20-25 minutes, until you're left with about three tablespoons of thick syrup. Strain through a fine sieve, allow it to cool down, then stir in the orange blossom water.

To assemble the dish, roughly tear the radicchio leaves into large pieces and put in a bowl. Add the endive leaves, oil, salt and pepper, then toss gently. Divide the dressed leaves between two plates, building up the salad by dotting it with orange segments and spoonfuls of ricotta. Drizzle the syrup on top and finish with a scattering of pinenuts and pomegranate seeds together with the small red leaves.

Book Love


Abelardo Morell 
Book Damaged by Water
2001

There are people, who imagine a heaven that is a mad big library. I am one of them. When I see this photo of a long suffering wet book, I feel like crying, I feel love.

Katya and the Power of Devil



Poor Katya, she is full of love and desire, but unfortunately the men around her are week and her mother in law is the evil in disguise.
Married Katya becomes infatuated with another man, gives in to temptation and ends her life because of her sense of sin. However it is her evil mother in law in the background who directs the events, manipulates her and his husband and leads the human drama to the final tragedy.
The huge black shadows and the joyless sets of the performance suggest that life is either black or white, right or wrong, stifled or sinful. When confronted by the complexities of human relationships people become mad and psychotic. Life is messy.

On the Paintings of Laszlo Szotyori


Laszlo Szotyori: Station Hall

Dazzling lightfall
pink vision upstairs
uncertain blue
shy yellow beneath
hesitant existence
of statuesque man-ghosts
in the shadow of light


Laszlo Szotyori: The Evening

Voiceless pointless
is the plane floating
in the landscape
its black shadow a gap
in the last ray of the sun
remotely a light clearing
further trees and the sea
oh the tired blue of the sky
the silent breath of the water
the black body of the plane
the mass of closed passengers


Laszlo Szotyori: The Meeting of Giants

In the flame of the church
in the light of faith hope love
humility and offering
is the plane bathing
suddenly
it comes to a halt
would stop for a prayer

Embroidery language


This Hungarian folklore pattern speaks of love with an archaic sign language using the beauty of the tulip and the peacock as symbols of male and female sex, fertility, sun and heaven. The reversed heart form is the symbol of male sex, the open tulips are for female fertility, and the plum-like shape between is for female genitals. The tulip opens up to the sky and offers herself to heaven. All this activity is catalysed on the warmth of the sun symbolised by the peacock-eye pattern.
