So my Being has a dual nature; the world I see and the image of the world inside of me. Given this, a person who paints does not necessarily appropriate the world like in photography. Input from the eyes is not simply ‘registered’ in the mind as if it was governed by my physical vision. The body ‘sees’ and is ‘seen’ and the mind registers both. This explains the map of ‘I can’ and the imminent image within me. The eye sees its own body as reality and not just a transparent thought. A painting testifies this.
