Amie Dicke: Artist in the Flow

Amie Dicke

Another artist from Hell Bound who's work I love is Amie Dicke.

I love how she takes the fashion model from a static image of perfection and shows the real energy of a living human being who is subject to the one way flow of time and aging on the surface, but is really a mass of ever changing energy with the illusion of remaining something of a static figure.

 "Even as a candle is shedding light, it is dying. 
It gets smaller and smaller in direct proportion to the light and heat it emits. 
Its job is to give itself away."

Candlemas

We have a lot in common with a candle when you think about the analogy.
We are an energy source with a finite physical form which is slowly or rapidly burning out.
Which in turn could be snuffed out at any time.

But it's not just our body that is like the candle.
Our planet is constantly changing also.
Nothing is static, all is movement, all is energy.

Nothing can really be kept in storage for too long.
You have to use it.

Everything has a use-by date, whether we use it or not.

Possessions aren't much good to a ghost after all, so make the most of your possessions before you become a ghost yourself ;-)
