Modern & Ancient

A beautiful creative and original result, Pierre!

 

Thank you for your attention, dear colleagues!

PDE

A wonderful sophisticated and elegant presentation, The creative part is great it seems is poping out ! Espectacular 3D effect with gorgeous texture! Warm regards. YOU ARE THE BEST!!!

Hi Pierre,

It is nice to see this version as the remarkable pattern and detail of the cube with green really comes to the forefront. That pattern is most interesting and engaging. Also, for me, this version reinforces the title in an even stronger way as we more clearly see the contrast of the modern (appearing reminiscent of circuit boards) and the ancient art of the lightly colored disc. Another beauty my friend!

Another great abstract! !!!  Timothy really said it all.   AJ

Thank you Ruud!

Jorge, mi querido amigo,

 

Watch your tongue, I like the last sentence of your comment very much but it considers others too! Ha!

 

Thank you for your nicest comment!

Dear Timothy,

 

What you are saying is the reason why I uploaded the right part of my previous post with the same title! As I can remember the two pictures (which are now merged in one) existed separately, but I lost them somehow and made the whole and then made left and right part independently!

 

Thank you for your keen contribution!

 

PDE

Dear AJ!

 

He did and I answered to him and it goes to you too, for you are saying that he said all which means you would have said the same!

 

Thank you for your visit!

Hi Pierre,

  Wonderful creative abstract with beautiful design & colors.  Great work as always!! Take care, Patsy

Yes, Patsy, always for you!

 

Thank you for bringing me luck!

 

Cheers to that!

At first glance of the thumbnail, I was thinking they were possibly Clock faces of some sort. Maybe also because of the title, . . . "Modern & Ancient" and coming from you I was thinking, . . . "Time, . . . has no boundries!"

 

Well, I see now that they are definately not Clock faces/dials but still, . . . the "time with no boundries" works here as well!

 

Cheers dear friend,

Jim j.

Nice philosophical approach, I may agree with it, dear Jim!

 

Thank you for your contribution my friend!

 

Cheers

First version was very good, this maybe better, more detail but less three dimensional. Still a great abstract my friend.

Best,

Holger

As you say, Holger!

 

The details are more visible here, otherwise this is only the right half of the previous!

 

Thank you for your input, my friend!

 

PDE

 

and why just modern in the foreground?

Because the title is "Modern and ancient", when I upload the other it will be "Ancient and modern"!

 

Thank you for your most reasonable question, Maria!

 

Cheers to that

 

PDE

interesting.  different that the usual from you.

Abstract sir! Not surreal!

Moderno e antico, un dado da lanciare sulla storia e nella storia: come dice la Bibbia..."nulla di di nuovo sotto il sole" e la tua composizione, per me, rende molto bene quest'idea!

Non ho mai visto cosa del genere nella Bibbia, ma anche se ho visto che non posso riferirsi a quello che hai detto prima di quella! In due parole: non capisco ciò che si vuole dire nel tuo commento! Ma, non è così importante, la cosa importante è che si è venuto a commentare la mia foto e ti ha detto che l'idea era buona! La ringrazio molto per questo, il mio più caro amico!

Ciaomau

A bold exercise in cubism . . . . or reality cubed, better still.

 

Only you could create a three-dimensional image in two-dimensional space.  Please keep the secret to yourself.

 

My best always,

michael

As I have understood it, abstraction is the process of reducing a message to its bare essentials, whereas the surreal attempts to create a bond between the real and unreal, the dream and reality by mixing seemingly unrelated matters like you often do.

 

If we are to assume that the dials represent units that measure time, then indeed the message is focused and therefore abstract. But the change in geometry combined with images from historically different periods  brings on a new perspective that one may also consider surreal ......  : - )

Michael,

 

Cube compared to squares emphasizes the three dimensional impression, addition of shadow on the cube does it further, that's the secret and it is obvious, no way to keep it for myself, ha!

 

Thank you for your brief (this time) comment and especially for the remark about my uniqueness!

 

Cheers to that

 

PDE

John,

 

Although I consider what I do and expose here and elsewhere abstract and surrealistic, I never moved my ass to open the book called vocabulary and see what these notions mean linguistically! 

Now, you gave me a brief definitions and I thank you for that! From now on I will know what am I doing!

 

Thank you for that, my friend!
