The Magic of the Cities.
Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Somewhere Before
“The
most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental
emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science.”

“I
am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom
feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that
only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into
something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn't impress me. I only believe in
intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way
or another. No more walls.”

“If
you ask me what I came to do in this world, I, an artist, will answer you: I am
here to live out loud.”

“Life
doesn't imitate art, it imitates bad television.”

takes courage. ”

for the first time. All his life he must see as he did when he was a child. - Henri Matisse
