Van Gogh self-portrait 1889

"When a reaction is primary, 'the idea' is no longer enough to motivate creation. Secondary response is perceived as a sustainable and orderly action of all experiences, which is equivalent to a large excessive broadening of the content of consciousness. "- reference Gerardus Heymans in edition of Denis Huisman 'Aesthetics' 1964

“The road to creativity passes so close to the madhouse and often detours or ends there.”
