The Paintings of Bouchra Belghali
By Brian D’Ambrosio To stand before a painting by Bouchra Belghali is to experience something closer to listening than looking. It unfolds the way music does—not by telling a story or depicting a recognizable scene, but by setting color into motion, allowing it to vibrate, collide and resolve into feeling. Like a melody unburdened by lyrics, it bypasses explanation and goes straight to sensation.

The Dancer
Canvas blocks softened by delicate satin make rhythmic drumming notes in the hallow gallery through the open door to the left. A girl I don’t remember, maybe she’s new, is standing in shame and exhaustion as the master scolds her on technique and timing. We have a job to impress, to bring in money, for the opera and for our families, if you still have anyone left to feed. If you dance well, one of the wealthy men in the audience might like you. If you perform well after the show, they might come back to see you.

The Gallery of Almosts
That thought hits me every time I step into my studio. It smells of paint thinner, old paper, and dreams I once had but never fully realized. Around me, unfinished canvases lean against the walls like ghosts of ambition. Some are half-sketched, others nearly complete—but none are whole.

Nighthawks Urban isolation
Nighthawks by Edward Hopper in 1942 is truly one of my favourite paintings of all time. My interpretation of this iconic painting is accurate. Another interpretation of my own is that these people are lost souls and Nighthawks an seemingly unassuming diner is actually purgatory. This painting gives me chills because it’s about isolation in an urban area or rural area you can be isolated anywhere. This artistic triumph holds relevance in today’s world due to our cell phones and social media. Nighthawks is a work of fine art and there is no question about that and Edward Hopper created a masterpiece.

When Art Becomes a Shared Experience: Inside Kate Van Doren’s Community-Based Exhibition
Art is often experienced quietly and individually. Visitors move through galleries, observe framed works, and form personal interpretations before moving on. However, some exhibitions invite a different kind of participation one that centers shared stories and collective reflection rather than isolated viewing. A recent example of this approach can be found in the work of contemporary artist Kate Van Doren and her ongoing Healing Words Project.

Essence, Embodiment, and Relational Reality
The Failure of Reduction and the Need for Synthesis There is a persistent failure in many modern attempts to explain what a human being is. Some frameworks reduce the person entirely to matter, insisting that identity, consciousness, morality, and meaning are nothing more than emergent properties of physical processes. Other frameworks move in the opposite direction, detaching spirit from reason and grounding belief in intuition alone, often at the cost of coherence or accountability. Both approaches fail because both misunderstand essence. One denies that essence exists at all. The other treats it as something vague and undefinable.
