NUMAJAII ... PAINTER OF THE BOOK

" The art of tomorrow is and will be primitive.

Not naked, but unveiled.

Thus I had to dissolve all reason so that instinct could finally appear in me again.

Instinct, understood here - naturally - in its original acceptance : given impulse.

Given ?

By whom ?

This was my entire quest, and to

this call – for every impulse

is an invitation – I abandoned myself 

body and soul.

From the earth of men, – whatever

lesson I received from it – I did not expect

anything more, so I questioned for a long

time the skies, which gave me reason to

believe that in their bosom lay the answer.

How great was my surprise upon finding

it one beautiful morning nestled in my 

own eyes !

The atrophy of the Ego, the greedy appetite for light and emotion, deposited the brilliant flashes of a piece of art where formerly only tumult and disenchantment had prevailed.

From then on, the World has governed my existence.

To make the poetry of the Bible my primal cry and, of the sources of the venerable Word, its movement, such will be for me my invariable aim.

The entirety of the my art will proclaim this single demand, this obsessive motive : To bear witness to Divine Love. "
