Re: صومعة لا تنظر إلى السماء (Re: Maysoon Nigoumi)

Maysoon Some years back I was discussing with some friends the link between mental illness and creativity. In fact we were talking about the Sudanese literary and creative scene. We mentioned Idris Jamma'a as an example. Because we heard that even after the onset of his mental illness, Jamma'a was writing poetry. It is known that he used to go to the bank of the nile, and scribble words on the sand with a piece of wood. Muawiya Mohamed Nour, also, wrote some essays during his nervous breakdown.
I shall come back to explore the link between creativity, nonconformity and mental illness. In the meantime, I applaud your intiative to talk about matters many people consider to be taboo.
I am glad you were impressed by the painting. I was also impressed by it when I searched Google Next time I shall publish drawings and paintings by schizophrenics
Take care and listen to a lot of Motzart Happy Valentine Day
