ALCHEMY

"Alchemy is by no means a description of objective phenomenon but an attempt to engrave human love into the heart of things".

Gaston Bachelard (Phsychanalyse du feu)

 

AUTOMATISM

The natural fire of the arts, vitality, spontaneity, its most important agent. but it has to be directed.

To archieve it the artist has to employ all his knowledge and accuracy, because this "fire" is so slow and concentrated that it is not possible to activate it without unflagging industry

Automatism has to be directed painstaking
