n a monochromatic abstraction state of mind, visual art makes a visual declaration. It cannot really be described in words, but rather only obliquely discussed. Thus, we can make reference to but can never fully articulate what a visual work is, or what it means, because it is a visual statement. We must have a visual experience for comprehension.
“I would like to make something that is real in itself, that does not remind anyone of any other thing, and that does not have to be explained like the letter A, for instance.” - Arthur Dove
