NatureIzWatchinYo

At first, when we look at this painting, we see eyes. Many eyes. Blue eyes. It seems like they’re looking at you. On the left, a tree branch does its best to appear on the painting. On the top, green patches could be the leaves of the tree, hanging in a blue sky. Like for most of my paintings, the meaning (when there is one), came after I finished it. I called it NatureIzWatchinYo. The idea is simple : the nature is watching you with its eyes. By « you » I mean « us », the human being. This may sound naive, but once you see the nature as a living creature (it’s a metaphor of course), you can’t prevent from respecting it. It’s like her eyes are observing what you do to her (him ? it ?). Sometimes aproving with shiny smily eyes. Sometimes disaproving with frowning angry eyes. In many animist cultures among the world, the nature is seen as a living creature, as a god sometimes.
