All written thoughts seem fixed, but they can at least generate thought

All written thoughts seem fixed, but they can at least generate thought.

 

Let's think.


According to the painted result, several readings are possible.
Each of my paintings puts forward a particular reading. Some of them are real symbolic puzzles which need an analytical train of thought.
However, I always manage to make this analytical reading a thoughtful one. I use symbols without any cultural reference. Instead of social assumptions, I always prefer symbols which are understandable by a non-feodated instinct and by the internal programming which reigns over all human beings at birth.

Other works took long research on "how" to do them, and for these to be read, one needs an opening into oneself in terms of "feeling" and not intellect.
Even when asked, I do not give away the key to these works. I ask all spectators to "feel" rather than to search for references in what they see.
Whatever the ethnocultural origin of my readers, this "feeling" has until now always been the same. The varying point - differentiating with their cultural (but not ethnic) origins - is the speed with which they enter into contact with this "feeling". Some types of education or necessities of life can cover the whole sensitive side of an individual.
I have seen that many have real difficulties "letting go", listening to themselves and releasing their analytical reference system. The duration of this approach can vary from instants to months, but always ends with identical perception expressed in different words. Which brings me to think that we have in common a foreign symbolic language, acquired post-birth.
