When an image is perceived visually, there is no outline, shadow, or
texture; they become a bundle of (reflected) light stimulating the optic
nerve through the retina.

| The human vision most quickly responds to color. A color is absorbed by the eyes as a straight reflection of light having no "noise". Perceptive painting as a sensibility (what can become us) and not as intelligence (of the other), increases the strength of seeing and experiencing, and while maintaining the image (reality) as it is, it tries to retrieve its capacity of changing/amplifying the image. The powerful grid construction spreading on the surface, endlessly expands in the space and the blank, like the eternally continuous pattern of the Islam mosque. The image starts to possess a cosmic universality. The mathematical (ancient geometry) construction which was mysticism itself in the past, and the accumulation of color, are formed by the reality that we already have within our physical body, and by the communication with the external reality called the painting (environment), and they are something that are more empirical. |
