Apprendre à voir : le point de vue du vivant
-
A forest ? A charming landscape. A crow ? A grim omen. A rose ? The loved one. The living world is both ubiquitous in our culture and decidedly absent. Because perceiving the living as a decoration, a symbol or a support for our emotions are all ways of not seeing it. What if we learned to see the living differently? What if we entered a reanimated world, repopulated by the points of view of beings other than ourselves? This book proposes to equip our eye to seize the living around us as teeming with immemorial stories, invisible relationships and unsuspected meanings. On the path of this metamorphosis, we have as guides those who have spent their lives learning to see the living in its abundance of signs and meanings: 19th century English and American painters and women naturalists. The book investigates their arts of attention, different but complementary, which knew how to weave together knowledge and sensitivity. Through this exploration, it is another availability to the world that surfaces.
Every day is an incredible and renewed opportunity to learn to see.
