I believe that art has a kind of rightness, as in music, when we hear whether or not a note is false

It can be a work by Mondrian, a piece of music by Schönberg or Mozart, a painting by Leonardo, Barnett Newman or also Jackson Pollock. That's beautiful to me. But also nature. A person can be beautiful as well. And beauty is also defined as 'untouched'. Indeed, that's an ideal: that we humans are untouched and therefore beautiful.

I don't create blurs. Blurring is not the most important thing; nor is it an identity tag for my pictures.

I'm trying to paint a picture of what I have seen and what moved me, as well as I can. That's all.

I believe that he knew more what he was doing. I might be absolutely wrong about this, but that was my impression.

I have no motif, only motivation. I believe that motivation is the real thing, the natural thing, and that the motif is old-fashioned, even reactionary (as stupid as the question about the meaning of life)

Abstract pictures are fictive models, because they make visible a reality that we can neither see nor describe, but whose existence we can postulate.
