People who look for symbolic meaning fail to grasp the inherent poetry and mystery of the images.

Visible things can be invisible. However, our powers of thought grasp both the visible and the invisible – and I make use of painting to render thoughts visible.

My painting is visible images that conceal nothing... they evoke mystery. Mystery means nothing. It is unknowable.

A thing which is present can be invisible, hidden by what it shows

We are surrounded by curtains. We only perceive the world behind a curtain of semblance. At the same time, an object needs to be covered in order to be recognized at all.

My investigations resembled the pursuit of the solution to a problem for which I had three data: the object, the thing connected with it in the shadow of my consciousness, and the light wherein that thing would become apparent.

The mind loves the unknown. It loves images whose meaning is unknown, since the meaning of the mind itself is unknown.
