AE’THIOPS
Photo, of course, means light. These photo works by JonnySacco are direct etchings on film of electric pathways. That is, the black and white film has been electrocuted between one negatively and one positively charged metal pole.
Lightning works the same way, as does jumping your car. The electrons traced by photons. Jumping.
Mythic stories are stories about the gods.
What is a god?
Many are forces of nature. Like wild electricity, like the jump starter of so many beings – Zeus.
Human beings have packed so much wisdom and knowledge into myths but many modern people do not understand them. So –
Lesson one – Gods are forces of nature.
Lesson two – Be respectful of the gods.
Lesson three – Try to be inconspicuous to the gods. Like, don’t stand out on the beach during a lightning storm.
JonnySacco went into his studio with the Excalibur of his intelligence and secretly filmed routes that the god takes. He had to be very careful and he got burnt more than once, in order to let you see the secret passages of fire, hidden within earth, air and water.
AE’THIOPS, the Glowing or the Black. A surname of Zeus, under which he was worshipped in the island of Chios
