Art Evolution II: Be a part of nature, re-create her in art

Art Evolution II

Dr Abe V Rotor

Be a part of nature wherever you are,

re-create her in art, in other ways you can,

 more so in the heart of the young,

that they'll love her and understand.

 

Spent Earth, artwork by AV Rotor 2026

On display at the Living with Nature Center

San Vicente, Ilocos Sur

A moth trapped in the night of a flood,

a scenario akin to  Silent Spring;

orphaned by man's indifference,

deaf to nature's warning.

Nature surround in art and song

Be a part of nature wherever you are,

re-create her in art, other ways you can,

 more so in the heart of the young,

that they'll love her and understand.

 

 Rizal in the garden memorial

From pedestal to grassroots,

 Noli to his exile in Dapitan; 

Rizal's life and martyrdom

for people to understand.

 

Bird nest replica - decor and teaching tool

Anahaw roots ensconced in a garden pot,

replica of bird nest for the real thing;

artwork for the living room and school, 

as specimen and aid in teaching.

House guest nature model

Wear a smile of  joy and prayer,

proudly wear a crown of halo;

put meaning to an abstract art,

and a precious moment, too. 

Empty wall into a wildlife sanctuary

Stare all day long on a blank wall,

imagine what we don't like at all;

bring back the eagles to a new lair,

 with their songs fresh and fair. 

 

Piggy banks made of old kettle, and upo-like calabash  

Reviving the tradition of saving,

recycling of waste into art,

in piggy banks and other ways,

we parents must impart. ~
