Whenever I'm speaking with someone who isn't accustomed to connecting with abstract, minimalist, or symbolic art, I often point them toward William Blake's poem “Auguries of Innocence.” Blake uses simple, everyday imagery to express ideas that are vast, emotional, and metaphysical.
Thank you for sharing this—it really sparked a breakfast conversation for me. The idea that we have to learn to see beyond what is in front of us. Connections are not always visible, but already there? Asking yourself to be open to discovery, to break patterns how you see and think is hard. Breaking away from the pack is even harder.
Thank you @Bleu Louis , I feel like we all have unique ways of knowing the world, it can take effort and mindfulness for us all to really understand one another. Perhaps being open to discovery in a genuine way is a type of interesting courage. 🙏✨
Masterfully put into words, D 🫶🏻✨⛵️❤️
