The artist is the creator of beautiful things. To reveal art and conceal the artist is art's aim.
No artist is ever morbid. Thought and language are to the artist instruments of an art. Vice and virtue are to the artist materials for an art.
All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril. Those who read the symbol do so at their peril. It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.
~Oscar Wilde~
