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.
Rene MagritteMy painting is visible images that conceal nothing... they evoke mystery. Mystery means nothing. It is unknowable.
Rene MagritteIf the dream is a translation of waking life, waking life is also a translation of the dream.
