Short description:

(Top center) The heavenly pole
The crowned angel. Sublime. Untouched by everything. Enjoying the radiance of the path of life waving above him.

(Center left) Awaiting resurrection
Four figures dissolving upward in the current.

(Center right) Death
Crystalline, crackling objects sink into the depths. Spraying with grace. What remains re-enters the eternal cycle.

(Lower half right) Standing by the wayside. Becoming and passing
Everything is connected with everything! One line leads to another. Everything else is uncertain.

(Bottom center) The diabolical pole
Self-portrait with horns. Holding the thread of creativity. Creator of one's own universe.

(Bottom left) Moment by moment
Only the moment counts! Even the leitmotif of the image disappeared before it was fully written down.
