Description
Not long before the season's end, autumn reminds that our bodies, minds, and surroundings are always emergent properties, arising in effect of complex causes. Time, in its invasion of the heavens, allows our tiny sanctuary its procession; and without eyes beholding it, it endlessly streams into new proportion.
And yet when a tiniest of its magnitude can be discerned, what marvels and excitement can fill one conscious mind - perhaps as well a dream. Looking downward in 2009 such thoughts had not a measure of connotation; yet something drew my attention – call it intuitive or inspirational – causing a moment to become a timeless event and now, a decade after, even a source of contemplation!
Just mere inches in any direction of space, a complex of nature tumbles upon itself; weaves every heaped up particular, and then tightens its grip by finally folding in upon itself. Shriveling so, each extra special species of plant life brings character to the confusion; painting emotive strokes of charisma, as well as resonating harmonic symmetry that implores some sort of poetry to be complete.
And then there is a finale of mysticism that might be attained - but not to just any viewer! Select as these initiates are, their numbers ever grow; nurtured on innocence and hope most any admirer of creative sport can don said chapeau – all an issue of attitude and awareness; curiosity, diligence and faith! What more have you located, imagined, while gazing into the static pandemonium within reach?

One of my favorite pieces of recent years... Truly a sliver, yet so many colors, shapes and impressions! It exists as a 30x40in print - it is stunning; perhaps one day I will be able to frame it; for know it joins other images rolled in their tubes... Thank you for inviting us into your show! best, Terrance

"Listening", Terrance, so sweet the pandemonium, the knell of Autumn's detritus . Compliments, fav, VIVA
Terrance DePietro replied:
Was it a whisper, or, as you suggest, a 'dong' that motivated my looking down to the patch of Autumn that day? I much think you to be right; for words would have merely been limiting; whereas an ambiguity, such as a chime, ring, ding or dong assuredly would have made me most inquisitive! Yet it took years to truly resonate - all time and all space and all ones imagery is a 'whole' - whole as understood profoundly as 'cosmos'! Thank you VIVA for edging me from dong to word! -tdp
