“You have to see abstract painting as you would listen to music, feel the emotional interiority of the work without trying to identify it with any kind of figurative representation. What's important, then, is not to see the abstract, but to feel it (...) The abstract is the liberation from all external conditioning (...). I would liken this approach to musical improvisation (...): it is improvisation, spontaneous creation.”
