The mandala describes balance. This is so whatever the pictorial form.
[Dada is] perfectly kindhearted malice, alongside exact photography the only legitimate pictorial form of communication and balance in shared experience.
Each person's life is like a mandala - a vast, limitless circle. We stand in the center of our own circle, and everything we see, hear and think forms the mandala of our life ... everything that shows up in your mandala is a vehicle for your awakening.
God has neither form nor color. He is incorporeal and immense. Whatever is seen in the world describes his greatness.
There are two elements to nailing a job interview: form and substance. 'Form' describes the outer layer of your character - your manners, your demeanor, your social skills. 'Substance' describes the inner core of your character - your intellect, your empathy, your creativity.

We affirm depth as the only pictorial and plastic form of space.

I saw that everything, all paths I had been following, all steps I had taken, were leading back to a single point - namely, to the mid-point.

I knew that in finding the mandala as an expression of the self I had attained what was for me the ultimate.
Balance takes work. Lots of it. There is no endpoint in balance, no goal, no finalization. Balance requires practice, patience, and - most importantly - movement. We often get stuck in our ways and form habits based on our fears and driven by our insecurities.
A picture whose pictorial form is logical form is called a logical picture.
I want to make exalted art. A successful image has pictorial lift. I am looking for whatever is up there
I want to make exalted art. A successful image has pictorial lift. I am looking for whatever is up there.
Whatever the self describes, describes the self.
The painter thinks in terms of form and color. The goal is not to be concerned with the reconstitution of an anecdotal fact, but with constitution of a pictorial fact.
I think I have a habit of, in my head, taking notes on whatever, you know, whether they're verbal or pictorial or just making a note of things as they're happening.
No-one who has a real understanding of the art of painting attaches any importance to what we call the subject of a picture - what is represented. To one who feels the language of pictorial form, all depends on how it is presented, nothing on what.
