View of War in late 18th century Europe, Immanuel Kant:

“War itself, if it is carried on with order and with a sacred respect for the rights of citizens, has something sublime in it, and makes the disposition of the people who carry it on thus, only the more sublime, the more numerous are the dangers to which they are exposed, and in respect of which they behave with courage. On the other hand, a long peace generally brings about a predominant commercial spirit, and along with it, low selfishness, cowardice, and effeminacy, and debases the disposition of the people.”

2021 - Sublimity - Part 1

This art was one of the first I made for my “Doppelganger” series for my master degree. I had the idea when me and a friend made a zine about sublimity. I thought about traditions and rituals of death, funerals, wake etc. that still hold a lot of sublime power. But while drawing a lot happened to the work: it was suddenly not about that at all. Took me three tries until I liked the drawing. Still one of my favorite works, even though I would do some things different now.

And in the darkness, bind them.

#saurondriel #haladriel #trop #rings of power #galadriel #sauron #halbrand #in my mind our girl is coping by having vivid dreams #but even there she can’t allow herself to fully kiss him #smth smth about sublimating grief and pain #they make my brain go fully insane

why isnt anybody properly repressed in modern fiction like repression has been a staple of human creativity since the dawn of time but tbh i think we have been seeing a steep decrease in severely repressed fictional characters since the 80s not sure what we are going to do about it are we suddenly all too good for repression or something personally i love repression

#this is why i have to read books written by deeply unwell women from the 1950s from time to time #keeps one grounded in just how much you can u sublimate your own desires until well theres nothing left to desire #its very real to me like they really get it
