THE TASTE OF SILENCE
Its
graphic
representation
in
writing
deserves
also
the
attention
of
the
artist.
She
notes
the
white
spacing
that
separates
each
word
and
by
omitting
the
phonemic
chain
feels
the
physical existence of the blanc.
The
eight
paintings
known
as
The
Taste
of
Silence
reproduce
the
effects
of
that
experience.
Silence
follows
the
utterance
of
the
word
and
the
choice
of
the
next
one
demands
a
supreme
care
to
keep
the
cleanness
of
mind
and
observe
the
ethical
principles
that
rule
human
existence.
In
these
pictures
the
Quadrangle
is
a
driving
force
in
the
formation
of
patterns
with
jagged
edges.
This
is
a
most
successful
visualisation
of
the
effects
of
profound
and
prolonged
silence
that
has
often
been
defined
as
having
a
sound
of
its
own.
The
terms
of
this
description
express
the
quality
of
an
experience,
which
reaches
the
limits
of
the
senses,
conveying the stillness of the mind.
