Art Reflections
    Abstraction is a way of life, yet it is not something you choose. Rather it is formed out of the natural state of individual life. Abstraction can also be understood as the spiritual realm in art. An individualistic attitude that emphasises the internal self is a kind of creation based on one¡¯s self. The means of expression for such a creation is both determined and open-ended. It expresses both the past and the future yet remains independent. The art work gets rid of the past, today and tomorrow, body and soul. It is separate from its surroundings and rises above the visible parts of daily life, yet all this is represented in ¡®black and white¡¯.
