Art Sanctuary Welcomes Back Anne Hesvik

'A true ornament is not a decoration, but expresses the untouched soul of something.'


"Ornamentet er et bilde av tingens vesen.
Det uttrykker det essensielle og har kastet alt uvesentlig bort.
Man kan kalle det en forenkling av virkeligheten.
Når alt overflødig er fjernet og kun det uunnværlige er latt tilbake, da oppstår ornamentet.
Et virkelig ornament er ikke en dekorasjon, men uttrykker en tings uberørte sjel.
Selv om ornamenter ikke er en nøyaktig avbildning, inneholder det en sannhet som overgår virkeligheten."
Yanagi Soetsu
(Japansk filosof)




"The ornament is an image of the essence of something.
It expresses the essential and has thrown away all that is insignificant.
You can call it a simplification of reality.
When the excess is removed and only the essential is left behind, thereof rises the ornament.
A true ornament is not a decoration, but expresses the untouched soul of something.
Although the ornamentation is not an accurate depiction, it contains a truth that transcends reality."
Yanagi Soetsu
(Japanese philosopher)

"L'ornementation n'est pas une représentation exacte, il contient une vérité qui transcende la réalité."
Yanagi Soetsu
(Philosophe japonais)
