TRIALOG

Cecilia Vicuña and I initiated a recorded Trialog conversation in March 2017, in conjunction with the Ritual Seminar we were invited to teach for Elective Affinities at A.S.F.A, the Athens School of Visual Arts, during documenta 14.

After documenta, we have continued this conversation that really began in 2004, in what we call our "Quantum Breakfasts", a dialog where a third voice appears.

Spin-Spin Triangulene

Oil painting by Cecilia Vicuña: Angel de la Menstruación, 1973.

In this work the "angel" enters an altered state of consciousness while staying grounded in reality, therefore her shamanic body spins in opposite directions at the same time.

Scientists recently created a "triangulene"; two entangled molecules that spin in opposite directions, allowing quantum calculations to be made.

Ancient Art, Living Pigment and Women Artists

In the Bradshaw website they analyze how the paintings go from cherry color (ochre) to purple. 

The bacteria can either destroy what they come in contact with or preserve it into eternity.

How and what makes the choice?

How did the ancient artists know that pigment was alive?

Perhaps through hundreds of years of observation and transmission of oral knowledge.

Ochre itself was deemed a connector to the energy of the universe.  It wasn't just symbolic, it was an actual mechanism, a dynamic living bridge...

The paintings go back as far as 70,000 years and are figurative, depicting women dancing. 

Women artists probably created them.
