Common Blindness
posted in notes |Whenever and whatever we take for granted, we become blind to it.
We cannot grow and learn from what we are blind to, especially when we do not even realize this blindness.
Any system of belief blinds.
Thus art is meaningful. It makes us see what most do not.
So is it thus coincidental, that the figurative and illustrative art thus gets celebrated more? Because an image that tells you precisely what it is, puts you back into the zone of clarity. A comfortable blindness perhaps?
