The Hanged Man

My version of the Hanged Man tarot card;

The Hanged Man is one of the most mysterious cards in the tarot deck. It is simple, but complex. It attracts, but also disturbs. It contradicts itself in countless ways. The Hanged Man is unsettling because it symbolizes the action of paradox in our lives. A paradox is something that appears contradictory, and yet is true. The Hanged Man presents to us certain truths, but they are hidden in their opposites.

The main lesson of the Hanged Man is that we "control" by letting go - we "win" by surrendering. The figure has made the ultimate surrender - to die on the cross of his own travails - yet he shines with the glory of divine understanding. He has sacrificed himself, but he emerges the victor. The Hanged Man also tells us that we can "move forward" by standing still. By suspending time, we can have all the time in the world.

The Hanged Man reminds us that the best approach to a problem is not always the most obvious. When we most want to force our will on someone, that is when we should release. When we most want to have our own way, that is when we should sacrifice. When we most want to act, that is when we should wait. The irony is that by making these contradictory moves, we find what we are looking for.

Der Todes Koenig

The following set of photos are from the opening of "Der Todes Koenig" @ Lion Heart Gallery in Oberhausen Germany. I would like to express a lot of gratitude to my friends and family who made this possible and stood by me when I was being difficult.

I would also like to express extreme thanks to the owners and curators of Lionheart Gallery, Igor and Meike, who are two of the most extraordinary people I have ever met. Their kindness and generosity touched me deeply.

Some pieces are still available to purchase through the gallery.

If you are interested, please contact the gallery directly @ lionheartgallery.de

Thanks again, all the best, and enjoy!

Heading to Germany tomorrow for the opening on Saturday. I will be posting pics of the pieces when I return. Until then, all the best!

I have been graciously asked not to post any more photos of the boxes before the show, but I wanted to leave you with one more image. This is my "Rock of Ages"
