Macrocosm & Microcosm

Macrocosm

Microcosm

From infinitely large to infinitely small,

from infinitely small to infinitely large.

Infinity : a concept that cannot fit in some heads.

Eternity : another concept that doesn't enter into certain heads.

"Infinitul din noi ne inspíră arta. În artă nu există ceea ce se cheamă idee,

ci doar VIZIUNE."

"Infinity in us inspires art. In art there is not what is called idea,

but only VISION."

Sabin Bălașa

From the Tudor Bălașa's book: "Sabin Bălașa: 1932-2008", Bucharest, 2013.

“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man

as it is, Infinite.

For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks

of his cavern.”

William Blake, "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell"

We all need space, lots of space.

And out there, there is enough infinite space for an infinite number of living beings. Because someone or something eternal did it right and only once for everyone. Someone or something that never does things “one little piece at a time". While others would like to put the universe in their miserable little pocket, claiming with great presumption that it is absolutely certain that space is finite, as limited as their vision and eyesight. Whatever the case may be, it is already enough... immense not to fall into their hands dirty with lies and prejudice.

Because the great drawing of life admits no limits.

Life was born free.

Comparison between us and the universe

On a large scale - a system (essentially) in rotation to an own axis.

It is self-similar the hidden and dynamic structure of universe?

At the human scale (however, in this case there is no appreciable motion of the matter around its own axis on molecular scale).
