Bridge of Sighs
if
then
if shit
then mud
if the reflecting under-can of Manzoni
then the bog-free aspiration of Rengetsu
The Buddhist nun, poet and potter Otagaki Rengetsu (1791-1875),
her chosen name Rengetsu translates as Lotus Moon.
The lotus begins life in the dark settlement of obscuration, in mud,
then grows towards the clearer water realm above,
and, beyond that, reaches and opens for the bright moon of the enlightened mind.
Her name reflects her aspiration, so too her vessels formed of mud
and fire.

regarding The Unbearable Likeness of Being
(1967) and Jeff Koons' mirror surfaces, from his Rabbit (1986) to the NGV's recent $25million reflecTAR folly.

About image. About projection-space and the projectionauts of TAR.
Fortnightly Review, 1 September 1914
as quoted by John Bown, Framing W.B. Yeats and Samuel Beckett: How and Why Two Writers Used Fine Art/Its theories in their Texts
At just 200 pixels wide, our first impression reckoned the reflecting surface to be the base of a Piero Manzoni can of Artist's Shit. Not so, but alike.
Beholding pattern - to be and to hold. Regard as radiant node!

One and Free ] Australia In Lockdown ( continues
Yesterday, Australia poet laureate Scott Morrison PM announced that, to recognise the ancient and continuous Aboriginal presence in this land, one word would be changed in the national anthem Advance Australia Fair : young and free changes to one and free. One crumb.
https://www.pm.gov.au/media/australians-one-and-free
Meanwhile, where it matters most, his government disregards the Uluru Statement From the Heart :
We, gathered at the 2017 National Constitutional Convention, coming from all points of the southern sky, make this statement from the heart:
Our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tribes were the first sovereign Nations of the Australian continent and its adjacent islands, and possessed it under our own laws and customs. This our ancestors did, according to the reckoning of our culture, from the Creation, according to the common law from ‘time immemorial’, and according to science more than 60,000 years ago.
We, gathered at the 2017 National Constitutional Convention, coming from all points of the southern sky, make this statement from the heart:
Our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tribes were the first sovereign Nations of the Australian continent and its adjacent islands, and possessed it under our own laws and customs. This our ancestors did, according to the reckoning of our culture, from the Creation, according to the common law from ‘time immemorial’, and according to science more than 60,000 years ago.
This sovereignty is a spiritual notion: the ancestral tie between the land, or ‘mother nature’, and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who were born therefrom, remain attached thereto, and must one day return thither to be united with our ancestors. This link is the basis of the ownership of the soil, or better, of sovereignty. It has never been ceded or extinguished, and co-exists with the sovereignty of the Crown.
How could it be otherwise? That peoples possessed a land for sixty millennia and this sacred link disappears from world history in merely the last two hundred years?
With substantive constitutional change and structural reform, we believe this ancient sovereignty can shine through as a fuller expression of Australia’s nationhood.
Proportionally, we are the most incarcerated people on the planet. We are not an innately criminal people. Our children are aliened from their families at unprecedented rates. This cannot be because we have no love for them. And our youth languish in detention in obscene numbers. They should be our hope for the future.
These dimensions of our crisis tell plainly the structural nature of our problem. This is the torment of our powerlessness.
We seek constitutional reforms to empower our people and take a rightful place in our own country. When we have power over our destiny our children will flourish. They will walk in two worlds and their culture will be a gift to their country.
We call for the establishment of a First Nations Voice enshrined in the Constitution.
Makarrata is the culmination of our agenda: the coming together after a struggle. It captures our aspirations for a fair and truthful relationship with the people of Australia and a better future for our children based on justice and self-determination.
We seek a Makarrata Commission to supervise a process of agreement-making between governments and First Nations and truth-telling about our history.
In 1967 we were counted, in 2017 we seek to be heard. We leave base camp and start our trek across this vast country. We invite you to walk with us in a movement of the Australian people for a better future.
