It is human nature to love what we create.

Surely no one sensible takes this jargon seriously?

We do not see things as they are: Images are human beings. The wonderful thing about thinking visually is that it is so far away from tenebrism to just think artsy.

"The signs of language transgress abstraction's code of ineffable silence and unreadability."

Good abstract works are timelessness unconventionality gone crazy. The sentiments expressed by this face are precisely that demand for empathy which modernist abstraction had to renounce.

Art is ultimately subjective, so that regardless of how "good" or "bad" we are told it must be, we must had some fun with it. A mass of barely significant pictures explaining little.
