There are a lot of things on my mind. Since the morning I worked on a collage, cleaned up pictures, looked at other artist images, spoke to my family oversees, and... decided to withdraw from my M.Phil program (cinema studies)... I just wrote to my guide and explained the circumstances.
Nowadays
, my mind is bursting with a creative fervor; more often than not I find myself drifting into my art studio/practice everyday--looking at artist work, making work of my own, guilty escapes--rather than focusing on my thesis. It is a well thought and fair decision to leave the program, and my heart and vision feels lighter. Now I await what my guide says...
I learned quite a bit from the M.Phil program. Through it I was able to connect to a world of philosophy and cultural studies--to the Frankfurt school, the Marxist, the structuralist, post-structuralist, phenomenologists, ethnographers, film theorists, postmodernists, etc--that I found intimidating to study on my own. Those fields are so vast however that I have merely scratched their surface, but at least I have an entry-point now.
Here is an image/object fresh from the studio:
