Yin-Yang

[Allan Rahbek]

Hi Mike,

You know, the yin yang thing is about balance. Two energies in our mind, or how our minds percept things as opposite energies.

So to get the Yin-Yang energy to express itself you have to paint some highly contrasting structures.

One way of expressing the male Yang energy could be the active line, drawing, brush stroke intruding the female Yin energy of the blank paper or the more quiet areas of the canvas.

I will admit that when you separate the push - pull symbols they are no longer the literal yin-yang. They at best would be a suggestion of the same.

What if, instead of interjecting the yin-yang concept, i had instead placed two Japanese Beatles in their same place. Would the "composition" be balanced?
