From Breakthrough a commentary on Meister Eckhart Matthew Fox Says: "The reason the artist must plumb his or her inner life more than others is that there is where the action takes place. All things are present there. There all things are present, living and seeking within the soul what is spiritual, where they are in their best and highest meaning. The reason we do not grasp this is that we are strangers to our own capacity to give birth and to imagine images. Why don't you notice any of this? Because you are not at home there."
Purely emotional or psychological content in art is has had it's day it is time to resurrect the spiritual dimension in art; to use art to direct the viewer to the cosmic journey into inner space where human meets Divine.
