BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL – oil on canvas

Posted on 9th October 2015 by helgé

paint - beyond good and evil

In the light of the current wars sweeping through mid Europe and the just leveling of the playing fields via Russia, I do hereby present my oil painting “Beyond Good and Evil” to remind us all that ‘good’ and ‘evil’ exist as diametrically opposed forces. These symbols are surrounded by NATURE. Nature is neither good nor evil, it just IS. It is extremely sad that there are those that have chosen to engage with humanity propagating ‘evil’ for their own nefarious aims. This was my drive when painting this painting and my understanding of apartheid at the time. Little did I realise how UNIVERSAL this understanding of fascism has become, and how IN TUNE with the current groundswell of GLOBAL RESPECT FOR MOTHER NATURE and her ability to NURTURE. One hopes that this too is the ‘better’ aim of the Russian intervention.

The POWER of this painting (and the series which depicts the ‘falling apart’ of apartheid) constantly GROWS in stature.

The sad thing is that I live in a country that has thus far REFUSED TO SEE this creative DYNAMIC and contribution to South Africa. This DENIAL reflects the inability of those that ‘should know better’ (i.e. our creative minders) and their selective COLLECTIVE blindness. May they RIP.

New painting I started this two years ago
