Meditate Through Art
The key idea from oriental thought is the mutual arising of various species in nature and their effortless, spontaneous interdependence beneath a vast canopy of contrasts.
A painting becomes emotionally responsive when its composition exhibits a variety of contrasts in just the right proportion in the right places; opposites such as warm and cold, thick and thin, light and dark, perfect and imperfect, beauty and ugliness express each other, and symbolically define the meaning in our lives in terms of their polar experience.
Only those who love color are admitted to its beauty and immanent presence.
It affords utility to all, but unveils its deeper mysteries only to its devotees.
Johannes Itten
