The Spirit of Painting: The ‘Painting with Cinema’

Game over (to Chirico)

Game over (to Chirico)

Chirico’s Metaphysical Painting transposes reality here. The title suggests Beckett’s hallucinated dream where the disabled and devastated person goes through an apocalypse’s universe.


Craddles under ashes torn apart by hate

Hit by hard-pressed runaways bunch

Without allies to name them enlightened

Egypt and glued eyelids consort

Earth breaks open from overwhelming evils

Toward the absurd exit of the white burdens

Ah! Something is taking its course

Since yesterday create love tomorrow
