The artist's eye
By seeking beauty in art affirms Godhood. Also evolving increasingly beautiful, intelligent and noble beings is closer to Godhood, which
is the evolved zenith of these things. We materially evolve to Godhood in the material/supermaterial world.
Frederic Turner wrote, “ ...the artist
must sail into the unknown, cutting blazes as he or she goes along,
blazes that consist of a combination of some symbols already known
and some open to question, a grotesque paradox, that opens up the new
territory of perception...”
Turner also quotes Shakespeare
from “A Midsummer Night's Dream”:
“The poet's eye, in fine frenzy
rolling,
Doth glance from heaven to earth,
from earth to heaven.
And as imagination bodies forth
The Forms of things unknown, the
poet's pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to
airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.”
