PETER SUMMERS
Silence is at the heart of all things. All things begin and end in silence.
The omittance of unnecessary language and the reduction to the essential can create a powerful experience; bringing the viewer into contact with the divine, the ultimate reality and one’s own true self.
But one acknowledges that the language of silence inherently poses a dilemma of expressing the essence of what cannot be represented.
In silence know thy truth.
