RE: my contribution to Abstract photography – Stage 2
The process of abstraction might be very similar to the process of recognition, since it reacts to the same question: what do I see?
On the issue of perception.
My question is different: what do I feel?
We are all different and the exchange of our impressions is very, very interesting.
By the way, in my opinion, the wandering of the gaze is not the completely lost connection with the object.
This were my first words before posting. But I came to the thought: no feeling before seeing.
Yes, it is! And we can try to balance on the borders between philosophy, psychology, and aesthetics (of perception).
I agree. Completely losing the connection with the object could destroy the perception itself. Our minds are "pre-determined" to seek objects behind the shapes and colours - otherwise our anchestors would not have survived... But in aesthetics, we are able to play around with this perceptional structure. And "arts" like to break them into pieces - for a moment, for a while.
You are a great conversationalist! Your thoughts are very voluminous and informative, they have a lot of philosophical view. Thank you!
Thanks for appreciating!
