The World of White


Alb



White lies at the two extremes of the chromatic spectrum.

The color white represents both the summation of all colors and their absence.

"White, often considered a non-color, symbolizes a world where all colors have evaporated..." said Wassily Kandinsky, the Russian painter from the last century, who heard colors, was gifted withy synesthesia, and was one of the initiators of abstract art in the Western world.


The white encountered today tells...


-About what it's like to be the salt of the blossom


-About how to speak with eyes, to look, to record the image, in order to educate a healthy culture of visuality


-About the fact that wherever we are today, day equals night, although it doesn't know the equinox phenomenon


-About how sometimes our steps are supported by a victory of life long forgotten.

Somewhere about 2000 years ago, roughly in the current area of Cluj, the Roman city of Napoca was developing, the capital of the province of Dacia Porolissensis. Recent archaeological research, carried out during the rehabilitation works of I.L Caragiale Park, has brought to light several historical walls and has accurately identified the northern side of the Roman city enclosure, of which only the western and southern sides were known until recently


-About a dangerous autocracy in the east, just signed, through Putin's reelection in Russia, with a regime that begins to resemble the friend's totalitarianism from North Korea


-About political gerontocracy across the ocean


-About the cordial negotiations in elegant, quiet rooms, devoid of the aspect of blood, finely dressed, so that the weapons may be silent in Gaza


-About diverse identity reactions in a society disrupted by multiple crises on the rise


-About women who scream their fury, not with wolves (the thought led me towards the book ”Women Who Run With the Wolves”), but in manifest forms, in groups, inflaming even the most docile spirits


-About nature offering humanity free lessons, about growth and decline, about yellow and green and white, about falling asleep and fresh paroxysms


-About the natural pharmacy where you buy without a prescription: fresh air, sounds already arranged in bird and tree notes, fertile ground to walk and think, waters with raised eyebrows in merriment


-About the school where white actively challenges knowledge of the world, by cultivating a taste for beauty, by activating dormant genetic codes


-About a seduction metabolism of social media, already hypertensive, disadvantaged by white, which will not be adjusted soon and slowly ossifies the vivid living


-About how to look at yourself and heal


-About you


-About me, with my fears and inactive expressions, which often do not find their form of telos in the world
