I am dominated by one thing, an irresistible, burning attraction towards the abstract. The expression of human feelings and the passions of man certainly interest me deeply, but I am less concerned with expressing the motions of the soul and mind than to render visible, so to speak, the inner flashes of intuition which have something divine in their apparent insignificance and reveal magic, even divine horizons, when they are transposed into the marvellous effects of pure plastic art.

I believe only in what I do not see.

No one could have less faith in the absolute and definitive importance of the work created by man, because I believe that this world is nothing but a dream.

Color must be thought, imagined, dreamed.

I have never looked for dream in reality or reality in dream. I have allowed my imagination free play, and I have not been led astray by it.
