Muto's Meadow

This post has been edited almost every week since I typed it. My philosophy behind my experience is not thought out enough for me to publish it anywhere. Please enjoy this paragraph, and feel free to inquire and comment.

Two nights ago, I climbed on top of a public school building, at least thirty feet high. I lied down and rested my ankles on the edge of the roof, letting my feet dangle in the air. The midnight sky opened up above me, unobstructed by trees or other structures. The high, flat surface of the municipal building acted as my metropolitan meadow. My escape from society, a thirty foot climb away. No one, except my best friends who were with me, knew where I was. I was inaccessible to the clawing fingers of society's giant, grasping hands. I wrapped the blanket of the calm night around me and gazed at the stars. I had my own world, for a little while.

Muto in Action

This is one of my most recent works. My girlfriend and I designed this piece for my brother's new apartment. We chose the complimentary colors orange and blue to represent the duality of excitement and calm which is likely to fill the dwelling. The blue in some places is symbolic of the Carolina Panthers and the top right corner is a reference to the Argentine National Football Team; both are among his favorites. I will experiment more with this abstract style and take it to new places soon!

My goal as Muto.

One definition of "Muto" in Italian is voiceless. It adds an ironic twist to the title, because this blog will be my voice. I will post my art: past, and present; I will post some stories; and I will post some opinions. Through this medium, I hope to earn some respect for my unique voice.
