"Art makes us more aware of the synesthetic aspects of experience."
Dr. Hugo Heyrman
"The pictorial transposition of ways of seeing is the main theme of my work. Painting cannot take the place of reality or refer to it since there is no original reality. The paintings are orientation points, reflections based on synesthetic experiences, self-made realities; they are images of an image of an image, of an image."
Art exist as experience.
The viewer remakes the meaning of the artist.
Perception is the cognitive act of projecting or creating meaning and pretending that it belongs to what is perceived.
Meaning is an activity.
The creation of meaning is above all embedded in human relationships and always culturally bound.
In a media-dominated zap culture, the slow attention of a painting can act as a contemplative counterforce.
