La femme-fleur (Françoise Gilot), 1946
This is a an attractive, beautiful and elegant woman. She is full aware of her beauty. And she uses her attractiveness to the full extent. You can think that this is her only weapon. But she has a "killing" combination of beauty and a sharp mind. But it's not a weapon, it's a tool. She uses her talents as a flower that attracts bees. It has nothing to do with bees, the flower has its own agenda. The woman uses them to attract others and to observe them. She is an artist, because the real artist is an observer. Her observations nurtures her attractiveness and  deepens her mind.

Daniel, Hesidence at D'Amelio Terras(Art Basel Miami Beach 2011)


Untitled ( 1 7 7 9 / Pedestrians )
The things are happening so fast in life, you don't see the details.It's one smooth purple blob. You know there is something else, something important, but you can't catch it. Sometimes you have to stop and to go around the thing in order to grasp what is going on. You go around and you return to the starting point and you observe the whole thing, and then you start to see details and parts and their relations among themselves(red lines and spots). This is what Pedestrians do. They don't just get from point A to point B. They observe, they consume the road, they live the way. The journey is the goal, not the means.
