CONSCIOUSNESS cannot spontaneously accept or reject new forms, as offered by creative genius; it is the new form, for however great a period of time it may remain a mere irritant—that molds consciousness to the necessary amplitude for holding it. - Mina Loy

Is new form aggressive by nature? Newness is a shock and no matter how gentle, round or pretty- it is a disturbance, a collision, always requiring an expansion. Expansions, no matter how slight, stretch- and stretchings hurt. Mina Loy said that new form molds consciousness- form comes first. Forms break and bleed. They antagonize consciousness until consciousness expands. Shift your position and the whole world is new. Stop staying in locations already familiar. What is movement anyways but a changing of position, a repeated changing of positions. I want my paintings to do it. I want them to move and be moved, to be moved by moving and to be moving having been moved.

Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death. -Anais Nin

Haraway situates subjectivities- ‘cuz no one is without location. What is your vantage point, your advantage point? What can possibly clear the rooted matter that solidifies vision? My vision is multiple and many- doubled, tripled, troubled. AND form hurtling against itself is thrown beyond the synopsis of vision. Haraway: ‘only partial perspective promises objective vision’. Being partial means never quite fitting. To be dis-located requires confidence in knowings that only come from having been being so fully. Fully being is a rarity- I provoke you to come out and begin it. The velocity of velocities arrives in starting.

Fuck waiting for starting and start that shit now. Evolution requires movement and forms evolve sometimes slowly and always through multiple and ugly moments. Let your shit be ugly. Just fuck it all to hell and make something. I’m sick of restriction and restraint- of holding it in thinking I’ll let it out later. Locomotion is key to sex and movement breeds the new. So fuck it!
