Authors will strive to astonish more than to please, and to stir passions rather than to charm taste. — Alexis de Tocqueville

Imagine an eye unruled by man-made laws of perspective, an eye unprejudiced by compositional logic, an eye which does not respond to the name of everything but which must know each object encountered in life through an adventure of perception.
