3-R3-La Clairvoyance



In La Clairvoyance (by Rene Magritte), the painter’s eyes are fixed on an egg, but his canvas shows a bird with outstretched wings. The egg may seem to offer little beyond what is already visible, while the bird opens up an entirely different world of possibilities. The painter’s attention has moved beyond observing what exists to imagining what can emerge.

We are often surrounded by familiar things that seem to offer nothing new to discover. When we feel we have already seen all there is to see, the familiar loses its power to excite the creative mind. Imagination then spreads its wings, carrying us beyond what is present to what might be possible. Yet, in this very act, we also move away from the present, inhabiting a world of our own making.
