Dibalik Jendela Kaca

dankepeace


Suatu sore kala hujan deras mengguyur kota ini, saat semua manusia sejenak menghentikan rutinitas mereka dan sebahagian lagi tetap melanjutkannya, termasuk aku di suatu ruangan yang aku sebut mini studio.
sendiri nan dingin kini menyentuh pelan perlahan lalu semakin dalam mulai memaksaku terjun kedalam dunia pikiranku sendiri.
Suara jutaan tetesan air hujan yang jatuh tak tertahan seakan menjadi musik latar di ruanganku saat itu, merdu, sangat merdu nan menenangkan hati pendengarnya.
aku duduk di sebuah kursi yang berada tepat disudut ruangan ini dan mulai menatap sekeliling seakan mencari kepingan cerita yang tercecer jatuh ke lantai.
Mataku tertuju pada pada sebuah jendela kaca ruangan itu, kutatap jendela itu dan perlahan mulai bermain dengan sesuatu yang aku sebut imajinasi.
jendela yang berusaha menahan udara dingin dan jutaan percikan air hujan agar tak membasahi sebagian ruangan ini.
entah berapa banyak tetesan air yang menempel pada jendela kaca tersebut.
tetesan air yang tertahan sejenak pada kaca jendela itu bergantian meluncur jatuh ke tanah,
layaknya kisah lama yang tertempel di memori pikiran lalu berjatuhan setelahnya.
ya, ini hanya tentang sebuah kaca jendela dan air hujan, satu dari ribuan momen kejadian yang terjadi di ruangan ini,
Di luar ruangan ini, Hujan semakin deras. semakin aku terlarut oleh lagu ketenangan yang diciptakannya kala itu.
juga Percikan tetesan air yang hinggap di kaca jendela itu pun semakin bertambah,
Jendela Kaca dan Tetesan air itu mulai membisikkan sesuatu padaku bahwa segala hal yang terjadi dalam hidupmu hanya sejenak, dan perlahan pergi layaknya tetesan air yang gugur dari jendela kaca tersebut lalu tergantikan oleh percikan tetesan-tetesan air baru,
Dan akan Hilang Perlahan seiring Hujan yang Mulai mereda hingga kering seiring munculnya sang matahari.
Bisikan Jendela dan tetesan Air itu membuatku tertengun dan terdiam sejenak berfikir bahwa sesederhana itukah Hidup?
Aku yang saat ini digurui oleh sebuah kaca jendela dan diingatkan oleh percikan air di jendela itu.
momen sederhana yang membuahkan pola fikir yang menggelegar mengalahkan suara petir yang datang sesekali.
sangat sederhana nan penuh makna

Mereka Memalingkan Senja

fotografi

Ini bukan tentang senja, tak sengaja kupotret beserta dua orang di kejauhan sana yang tengah bertukar tatapan mata.
Entah siapa dua manusia tersebut, akupun tak mau tau.
yang aku tau hanya dua orang yang berada di lingkaran kebahagiaan tanpa dera kesedihan di mata mereka.
mereka tak menyadari telah jatuh kedalam lensa kamera yang kubawa di tanganku ini bahkan melihat ke arahku pun mereka enggan.
yah, lambat laun kusadari bahwa ini bukan tentang senja, tetapi tentang dua insan yang sedang melewatkan senja menanti malam yang kan segera tiba.
tentang dua pasang mata yang saling bertukar pelangi dan saling menyapa hujan.
tanpa menghiraukan sekelilingnya yang seadanya adalah figuran di balik bingkai mereka.
ya,,,,, hanya mereka dan tentang mereka,
bukan senja itu.

This is ME !

"Banggalah Menjadi Dirimu Sendiri"


Dimanapun Kau Berada, "Banggalah Menjadi Dirimu Sendiri"
Bagaimanapun Keadaanmu, "Banggalah Menjadi Dirimu Sendiri"
Seberat Apa pun Masalahmu, "Banggalah Menjadi Dirimu Sendiri"
Siapapun Temanmu, "Banggalah Menjadi Dirimu Sendiri"
Dan apapun yang Terjadi, "Banggalah Menjadi Dirimu Sendiri"

Karena kau yang lebih Tau akan dirimu sendiri.

Senja Yang Terlupakan


"Tentang puisi tanpa pujangga
Tentang Kosa tanpa kata
Tentang ucap tanpa makna
Tentang nyanyian malam tanpa suara
atau tentang Aku tanpa suara
yang diam tak berdaya
tak pula bersua
ataupun terjaga
layaknya sebuah bunga dihinggapi serangga
perlahan kutumpahkan bayangan dibalik kisah lama
disuatu senja
kurajut kisah tanpa asa
atau pun cita
begitu juga dusta
ini hanya tentang senja tanpa kita
kita yang telah menua
dan selalu berdua
memadu sapa
dan cinta
ah sudahlah...., itu terlalu fana
juga sudah lama
tak akan kembali semula
layaknya mereka
yang tak berkepala"

The Art Getting By

the art getting by

"Because Art never lie, Art of getting by"

All of Art.

"This article is about the general concept of art. For the group of creative disciplines, see The arts. For other uses, see Art",- (disambiguation)

Art is a diverse range of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing artifacts (artworks), expressing the author's imaginative or technical skill, intended to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power. In their most general form these activities include the production of works of art, the criticism of art, the study of the history of art, and the aesthetic dissemination of art.

The oldest documented forms of art are visual arts, which include creation of images or objects in fields including painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, and other visual media. Architecture is often included as one of the visual arts; however, like the decorative arts, or advertising, it involves the creation of objects where the practical considerations of use are essential—in a way that they usually are not in a painting, for example. Music, theatre, film, dance, and other performing arts, as well as literature and other media such as interactive media, are included in a broader definition of art or the arts. Until the 17th century, art referred to any skill or mastery and was not differentiated from crafts or sciences. In modern usage after the 17th century, where aesthetic considerations are paramount, the fine arts are separated and distinguished from acquired skills in general, such as the decorative or applied arts.

Art may be characterized in terms of mimesis (its representation of reality), expression, communication of emotion, or other qualities. During the Romantic period, art came to be seen as "a special faculty of the human mind to be classified with religion and science". Though the definition of what constitutes art is disputed and has changed over time, general descriptions mention an idea of imaginative or technical skill stemming from human agency and creation.

The nature of art, and related concepts such as creativity and interpretation, are explored in a branch of philosophy known as aesthetics

In the perspective of the history of art, artistic works have existed for almost as long as humankind: from early pre-historic art to contemporary art; however, some theories restrict the concept of "artistic works" to modern Western societies.[12] One early sense of the definition of art is closely related to the older Latin meaning, which roughly translates to "skill" or "craft," as associated with words such as "artisan." English words derived from this meaning include artifact, artificial, artifice, medical arts, and military arts. However, there are many other colloquial uses of the word, all with some relation to its etymology.

Few modern scholars have been more divided than Plato and Aristotle on the question concerning the importance of art, with Aristotle strongly supporting art in general and Plato generally being opposed to its relative importance. Several dialogues in Plato tackle questions about art: Socrates says that poetry is inspired by the muses, and is not rational. He speaks approvingly of this, and other forms of divine madness (drunkenness, eroticism, and dreaming) in the Phaedrus, and yet in the Republic wants to outlaw Homer's great poetic art, and laughter as well. In Ion, Socrates gives no hint of the disapproval of Homer that he expresses in the Republic. The dialogue Ion suggests that Homer's Iliad functioned in the ancient Greek world as the Bible does today in the modern Christian world: as divinely inspired literary art that can provide moral guidance, if only it can be properly interpreted. With regards to the literary art and the musical arts, Aristotle considered epic poetry, tragedy, comedy, dithyrambic poetry and music to be mimetic or imitative art, each varying in imitation by medium, object, and manner.[13] For example, music imitates with the media of rhythm and harmony, whereas dance imitates with rhythm alone, and poetry with language. The forms also differ in their object of imitation. Comedy, for instance, is a dramatic imitation of men worse than average; whereas tragedy imitates men slightly better than average. Lastly, the forms differ in their manner of imitation—through narrative or character, through change or no change, and through drama or no drama. Aristotle believed that imitation is natural to mankind and constitutes one of mankind's advantages over animals.

The second, and more recent, sense of the word art as an abbreviation for creative art or fine art emerged in the early 17th century. Fine art refers to a skill used to express the artist's creativity, or to engage the audience's aesthetic sensibilities, or to draw the audience towards consideration of more refined or finer work of art.

Within this latter sense, the word art may refer to several things:  a study of a creative skill,  a process of using the creative skill,  a product of the creative skill, or the audience's experience with the creative skill. The creative arts (art as discipline) are a collection of disciplines which produce artworks (art as objects) that are compelled by a personal drive (art as activity) and convey a message, mood, or symbolism for the perceiver to interpret (art as experience). Art is something that stimulates an individual's thoughts, emotions, beliefs, or ideas through the senses. Works of art can be explicitly made for this purpose or interpreted on the basis of images or objects. For some scholars, such as Kant, the sciences and the arts could be distinguished by taking science as representing the domain of knowledge and the arts as representing the domain of the freedom of artistic expression.

Often, if the skill is being used in a common or practical way, people will consider it a craft instead of art. Likewise, if the skill is being used in a commercial or industrial way, it may be considered commercial art instead of fine art. On the other hand, crafts and design are sometimes considered applied art. Some art followers have argued that the difference between fine art and applied art has more to do with value judgments made about the art than any clear definitional difference. However, even fine art often has goals beyond pure creativity and self-expression. The purpose of works of art may be to communicate ideas, such as in politically, spiritually, or philosophically motivated art; to create a sense of beauty (see aesthetics); to explore the nature of perception; for pleasure; or to generate strong emotions. The purpose may also be seemingly nonexistent.


The nature of art has been described by philosopher Richard Wollheim as "one of the most elusive of the traditional problems of human culture". Art has been defined as a vehicle for the expression or communication of emotions and ideas, a means for exploring and appreciating formal elements for their own sake, and as mimesis or representation. Art as mimesis has deep roots in the philosophy of Aristotle.[19] Leo Tolstoy identified art as a use of indirect means to communicate from one person to another. Benedetto Croce and R.G. Collingwood advanced the idealist view that art expresses emotions, and that the work of art therefore essentially exists in the mind of the creator. The theory of art as form has its roots in the philosophy of Immanuel Kant, and was developed in the early twentieth century by Roger Fry and Clive Bell. More recently, thinkers influenced by Martin Heidegger have interpreted art as the means by which a community develops for itself a medium for self-expression and interpretation. George Dickie has offered an institutional theory of art that defines a work of art as any artifact upon which a qualified person or persons acting on behalf of the social institution commonly referred to as "the art world" has conferred "the status of candidate for appreciation". Larry Shiner has described fine art as "not an essence or a fate but something we have made. Art as we have generally understood it is a European invention barely two hundred years old."

"THE ART of GETTING BY"


"The ART getting by", sampe sekarang arti sebenarnya masih buram, tetapi menurut saya, kalimat tersebut berarti "seni menjalani Hidup" atau " Biarkan seni melalaluinya". saya berfikir bahwa setiap manusia memiliki seninya masing-masing, meskipun tehniknya berbeda.
manusia dilahirkan dengan segala kelebihan-kelebihannya, semua memiliki cara masing-masing dalam menjalani  hidupnya bahkan mereka punya seni sendiri dalam menghadapi masalah..
Seni menjalani hidup tidak selalu seni dalam merubah situasi tetapi juga seni menikmati situasi tersulit dalam hidup ini. Seni menjalani hidup bukan hanya seni menikmati kenyamanan tetapi kekuatan bertahan dalam tantangan terberat. Seni menjalani hidup bukan hanya seni menikmati perubahan-perubahan yang lebih baik tetapi keteguhan saat kejenuhan kian membeku. Karena masalah, tantangan dan pergumulan merupakan bagian yang sama dalam hidup seperti halnya kesenangan, keberuntungan dan kenyamanan.

jadi, pada dasarnya setiap orang memiliki seninya sendiri, dan biarkan seni itu melalui semuanya. 
THE ART of GETTING BY
