Are opposites and unity mutually exclusive? Perhaps art can bring us together.
Pencils and erasers,
Paintbrushes and thinner,
Charcoal and smudged hand,
Sculpture and chisels,
Photos and Photoshop,
Needles and felt,
Jewelry and hammers,
Ink and acid etched metal,
Wood and lathes.
Use it and change it,
From shapeless to form and structure,
From 2D to 3D,
From nothing to something,
Combination of grace...
Creation in the darkness,
From pitch to angel wings,
From separate to belonging,
That we, like art, could all belong,
That we would not be stuck in dichotomies
of beliefs that muddy our vision,
That we could be one.
Perhaps unity would be better served if one hand was red and the other was blue.
Throughout history, artists have tried to bring people together with great works of art. You are in great company. The rest are just, "blowing in the wind." (Bob Dylan)

Even the symbol of Taiji or Yin-Yang's unity is made from the three, with the S-shape line in between the black and white. A beautiful pic. and smoothly running piece of poetry, Danae. Cheers, alex

“We’re going to use nine megaton warheads in space and we’re not sure they’re large enough to be effective. Why would you even consider using kiloton-range surface-to-air warheads as back-up?” The answer was succinct. “Because they’re all we have.”
