Tortuographie. Tortuous photographie. It is true. It is false.
Tortuographie is more than photographie. It is more than calligraphie. It is more than painting. It is more than drawing. It is photographie, and calligraphie, and painting, and drawing. It is a means of coming closer to the essence of light and dark. It explores the boundaries of these opposing forces, samples them, digests them, regurgitate them, and offer them to all who can see. Seeing is the key to understanding tortuographie. Looking is not enough. One must open one's mind to let the light and the dark in. Then, when the light enters the darkest recesses of one's mind, and when the darkness settles in the lightest spheres of one's thoughts, one can understand the meaning of tortuographie. The light and dark twist and turn in one's mind, bend and shape one's thoughts. Tortuographie never attacks in a straight line. It approaches like a thief in the night. It spreads misinformation and uses camouflage to cover up its devious battle plan. It stealthily creeps past one's mental guards. And all that to strike with extreme force in a glowing rage of light and understanding. One can never assume to understand tortuographie. One can never regard tortuographie incomprehensible. One can never consider tortuographie containing a message or meaning. One can never insist tortuographie is devoid of information. Because it does, and it doesn't.
Tortuographie is a pathway to Hell and Heaven. One takes the road left or the road right. There is no straight and narrow. There is no guideline. There is no marker. Tortuographie is life. Whatever one takes as a guide, it is never true, and never false. Tortuographie is never true, and never false. Life. Tortuographie. One side of the same coin. The other side is the life beyond life. Unbeknownst to us. Tortuographie deals with the essences of life: dreams and fears, hopes and anxieties, optimism and pessimism, love and hate, good and evil, light and dark, body and soul, man and woman, life and death, soft and hard, bitter and sweet, warm and cold. One may think of Yin and Yang, of Pythagorean duality, of deva and asura, of Descartes or Kant. One would be right. One would be wrong. Discover the truth.
