Ora Tamir – Featured Artist
Insemination
the lips hum,
autonomous from
the body,
and pulse in the
distance. the
emancipation of
a slow drivel
and thrust.
(the machine of love!)
a canon bursts,
insatiating a birth,
water empties from
the page and stares
into its reflective
eyepiece. the
mirage in the
sky overlapping its
god paraphernalia.
a bird watches
from an orb
sprouted through
an oasis nutriment.
a dirtbed pew.
creation knows not
what may blossom—
at least in its greatness.
the man is her
vessel, out
from the chalice,
the orgasm,
the painful
spirit of blank
bodies and souls
in remembrance
and canvassed
in the terrible
tribe of fire
and water
and sacrament.
there is no such reality
contained within concrete matter,
(the master of metaplasia!)
or living things
beside those relived.
there is a deadening
commodity, and the moon
to the sky is the fire
to all other planetary
vehicles that sing to
the stars and parent
wild creations.
souls are bled
from starbursts.
dust will always
remain.

Ora Tamir (www.orasart.com)
Born in Israel, Ora Tamir immigrated to California in 1980. Ora’s paintings are purely intuitive, and surreal, with a futuristic quality and haunting beauty. The images are personal, touch the soul, and have a distinctly unique feel. Every original is a long labor of love.
Trying to describe Ora’s paintings is like trying to describe dreams. Using soft sable brushes and oil paints, symbolic stories are created. Her surreal sensual paintings express basic emotions and tap into the intricate human web.
