Gerhard Richter with his abstract paintings...especially the 90's ones are astounding. The colours... the feeling like you're looking at something which your mind prohibits you from seeing, like rain pouring down a window, blurring the view
A sense of a different perception suddenly strikes you, a notion that your bubble is cracking!!!
There is something there, something you've never thought of before, and you want to poke it, scratch off the safety layer
But somehow it never gets clear or complete, not even as you start to think backwards, leaning back into your mind and try to make the waves of colour take you with them.
