{\an8}[woman] Look at that. {\an8}I mean, really, look at that. {\an8}Painted in 1914
by Hilma af Klint. {\an8}She wanted to evoke
the feeling of contradiction. {\an8}Some say the vertical line
breaking the canvas {\an8}symbolizes where
opposite forces meet, {\an8}the union necessary
for creation. The dualities
of lightness and darkness, the masculine and feminine,
life and death. And, you know,
as abstract as it may seem, this is actually a depiction
of a swan. But what do you see?
What do you feel? When my boss sees this work,
she feels envy because some lucky prick at
Sotheby's sold his collection for more money
than you could ever imagine. But, me, when I see it, I mean, the feeling
is impossible to describe. When I see it, I feel... What the fuck
are you talking about?
