"From ancient times, people have sought a language that is both universal and synthetic, and their explorations have led them to discover images and symbols that express, by reducing them to the essential, the richest and most complex truths. Images and symbols speak, they have a language, but the ultimate symbolic language is that of geometric shapes. Geometric shapes are like a structure, like the scaffolding of truth... However, these shapes, although limited to the state of a skeleton, are nonetheless not dead, because they represent living truths within man and the universe. Therefore, in order to translate them, we must animate them, breathe spirit into them. They mean nothing as long as one is content to study them externally."
