“In early times every sort of advantage tends to become a military advantage; such is the best way, then, to keep it alive.

—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“I paint what cannot be photographed, that which comes from the imagination or from dreams, or from an unconscious drive. I photograph the things that I do not wish to paint, the things which already have an existence.”
