The personality of the artist, at first a cry or a cadence or a mood and then a fluid, and lambent narrative, finally refines itself out of existence, impersonalises itself, so to speak. The aesthetic image in the dramatic form is life purified in and reprojected from the human imagination. The mystery of aesthetic like that of material creation is accomplished.

You have thrown it all away. You are shallow and stupid

Mom used to frame everything we made, and now I'm following her example. It makes children so proud to see their work on display instead of hidden away.
