We all would love sometimes to be free from our own knowledge. It is even the most difficult to unlearn - as the most important problems are.
Ernst HaasI love to read theories without ever using them when working... The paradoxical fact in the aesthetic is that theories are also true in reverse.
Ernst HaasBored with obvious reality, I find my fascination in transforming it into a subjective point of view. Without touching my subject I want to come to the moment when, through pure concentration of seeing, the composed picture becomes more made than taken. Without a descriptive caption to justify its existence, it will speak for itself - less descriptive, more creative; less informative, more suggestive - less prose, more poetry.
