Artists often reveal that which is not initially visible. They employ an attitude which transcends linear logical thinking. Instead, they introduce the possibility of using sensate experience in order to contemplate other readings and interpretations of an object, a situation or a thought.
“Art does not reproduce the visible; rather, it makes visible.” Paul Klee
The artist, in the true meaning of the term, takes the viewer into a realm of an experiential space which may challenge and even alter a state of mind.
