J’ai envie de partager la beauté. Il me semble anormal et inquiétant que l’on ne s’interroge pas sur la qualité de l’espace et du temps. Respirer entre ciel et terre et en être conscient est une chose absolument stupéfiante. C’est une chance inouïe et nous la gaspillons. Je repère immédiatement les personnes conscientes de cela. C’est facile à voir. C’est dans les yeux.

I wish to share beauty. It seems strange and worrisome to me that one doesn't ask questions about the quality of space and time. To breathe between earth and sky and to be aware of that is something totally stupefying. It is an incredible stroke of luck and we waste it. I immediately spot the persons who are conscious of this. It's easy to see. It's in the eyes.
upon reading this in an interview with the French poet and painter Claude Margat, i thought that this was exactly what i had in vain sought to write for the profile/presentation of my 'floating bridge of dreams'... (and of all my photography odyssey, if such a presentation were to be required some day). now i am happy about that failure, the overwhelming wonder of such an encounter is more than i could have ever wished for. for those of you who read French - or learn to read French - go here for the whole interview, it is superflous to say that i highly recommend it. ah and what he says about calligraphy as well...
