Preparing For Darkness Or The Spirit Of The Melancholic Resistance
Black is the color of melancholy. It emerges from darkness and the accompanying dejection if it shows signs, endowed with the feverish dreams of an inflamed phantasy. If melancholy is said to affect the delicate tissues of the brain, it could also be stated, that it frees the imagination of its usual limits.
What is considered a diminution of the field of thought and the field of vision, is revealed in a dialectical twist. The melancholic state leaves behind it a shadow with which it maintains a connection as a bygone picture. The shadow play reveals as a character piece of a mirror image world, which absolves itself from meaning and becomes a void. This creates space for the imagination which results in configurations of a traversed blindness that render those lucid colours possible that are the blips along the paths through black nights of being. These are condensed into counter-images, which, like the impulse of the melancholic gaze, owe themselves to a reflective vision. The collection “Preparing for Darkness” corresponds exactly to the spirit of the melancholic resistance which still enables us to survive today.
Schwarz ist die Farbe der Melancholie. Sie entwächst dann der Dunkelheit und der sie begleitenden Schwermut, wenn sie Zeichen gibt, ausgestattet mit den Fieberträumen einer entzündeten Phantasie. Wurde der Melancholie nachgesagt, dass sie die zarten Gewebe des Gehirns angreife so konnte auch festgestellt werden, dass sie die Einbildungskraft aus ihren gewöhnlichen Grenzen befreit.
Was als Eintrübung des Denk- und Sehfeldes gilt, setzt sich in einer dialektischen Wendung frei. Der melancholische Zustand lässt den Schatten hinter sich, dem er zugleich verhaftet bleibt, als vergangenes Bild. Entblößt wird das Schattenspiel als Zeichentheater einer eingespiegelten Bilderwelt, die sich einer Bedeutung selbst enthebt und zur Leerstelle wird. Diese öffnet den Raum für Imaginationen. Daraus entstehen Konfigurationen einer durchschrittenen Verblendung, die erst jene Farbklarheiten ermöglichen, die auf den Wegen durch schwarze Nächte des Befindens Leuchtzeichen sind. Diese verdichten sich zu Gegenbildern, die sich als Impuls des melancholischen Blicks einem reflektierenden Sehen verdanken. Die hier vorgestellte Sammlung „Preparing for Darkness“ trifft dementsprechend genau den Geist einer melancholischen Widerständigkeit, der uns heute noch das Überleben ermöglicht.
