“Through nerve impulses, the retina of the eye transmits information which our consciousness later breaks down into relationships and interprets as sensory material; the mind processes this information by looking for recognizable experiential and cultural connections, from which it forms a cognitive whole of objects, along with a broad variety of its constituent components. From this multifaced whole, the gaze chooses a motif, a detail, a nuance, concentrates on it and immerses itself in this aroused curiosity. It starts with approaching it, separating the chosen detail from the whole and assigning it a personal, individual meaning - detached from the context. It proceeds with eventually reuniting this meaning with the whole, thus complementing the latter with new forms of significance. The diversity of these meanings forms an invisible and ever-expanding part of the perceived visual shapes.”
