TRUE FREEDOM IS BASED ON KNOWLEDGE

posted by Min Zou

If you couldn't paint what you want, it doesn't mean "freedom", it just means "incompetence".  True "freedom" means that you can paint what you want and fully express your own views.  True freedom is based on "rationality" and "knowledge".  Some people shout "learn from nature" and reject knowledge.  The key is that the nature perceived solely by the naked eye is only at the appearance level.  Only through thinking and knowledge can we see the essence through the phenomenon and pursue the truth.  For example: in ancient times, the earth was an infinitely extended plane; ... geocentric theory; ... heliocentric theory; ... no-center theory, etc... This is why philosophy, science, and art all have a development process, because people's cognition is gradually improving, from ancient naive natural philosophy to epistemological philosophy.  If you want to really enter philosophy, you must first understand these cosmology/time and space views. Because philosophy in different periods is based on the background of cosmology in different periods. Otherwise, don’t talk about your understanding of philosophy.  Ancient Greek concept of space and time  Newton's absolute concept of space and time  Hume's concept of space and time  Kant's a priori concept of space and time  Mach's relative concept of space and time  Poincare's conventional concept of space and time  Einstein's concept of space and time  Hawking's concept of space and time  And so on ... Thought Music Deep and secluded, Leaping, Flowing with a rhythm of bright joy, A beautiful function/melody. The universe contains music. All things are numbers. The Art of Time, The melody of space. Why can mathematics explain the fundamental laws of nature? Why can mathematics explain the characteristics of human society? View the world The eye of wisdom wanders in the sky, View the world, The world is shyly waiting to be explored. Science is built on assumptions; Philosophy is built on assumptions; Art is built on assumptions. Now, philosophy and science have reached the end of human thinking. Is it due to the limitations of these assumptions? Reconstructing worldview?

AWAKENING METAMORPHOSIS

posted by Nikoloz

"Metamorphosis Chronicles: The Dual Path" is a captivating diptych that explores the mystical experience of human transformation, where the masculine forces converge to reveal the hidden dimensions of existence. The painting “Awakening Metamorphosis”—invite viewers to delve into a profound narrative that transcends the physical, capturing the essence of the human spirit as it navigates the realms of creation, struggle, and enlightenment. The crushed canvas, a signature of the artist’s technique, adds a tactile dimension, reminding the observer of the raw and unrefined nature of transformation. As the story unfolds, we are introduced to the companion piece, “Awakening Metamorphosis.” Here, a man in the process of rising, one foot firmly planted on the ground while the other is in motion, as if caught between the moment of hesitation and the surge of determination. His gaze is unwavering, directed straight ahead, embodying the masculine force of action and willpower. The abstract elements within his form mirror those in the female figure, yet they carry a different energy—one of awakening, struggle, and the relentless drive to overcome. He represents the external experience of metamorphosis, where the individual must confront the physical and material challenges to ascend to a higher state of being. Through painting, Nikoloz Meskhishvili invites you to embark on a mystical experience—an experience where the physical and metaphysical converge, where the tangible and the abstract motion together in an eternal cycle of transformation.
