An artistic image

is one that ensures its own development,

its historical viability.

An image is a grain,

a self-evolving retroactive organism.

It is a symbol of actual life,

as opposed to life itself.

Life contains death.

An image of life, by contrast,

excludes it, or else sees in it

a unique potential

for the affirmation of life.
