about "in Itself"

Artist Statement:


According to the proper sense of the word "Wu wei," or "nature," means letting nature be or leaving nature as it is.
Namely, "nature" itself must remain intact.
The aim of "Wu wei" is to achieve a state of perfect equilibrium.
Equilibrium is a divine state and an attribute of God.
God must have created the universe in accord with his attributes.
The forbidden fruit is an emblem of the act that engendered disequilibrium.
Now we conceive of equilibrium as broken, and we are feeling pain from the wound.
An artistic act is, at least for me, a reflection and a restoration of the aesthetic substance of "nature " as broken, as lost equilibrium.
