own sublime

1 comment:

  1. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the sublime was associated in particular with the immensity or turbulence of Nature and human responses to it. Consequently, in Western art, ‘sublime’ landscapes and seascapes, especially those from Romantic period, often represent towering mountain ranges, deep chasms, violent storms and seas, volcanic eruptions or avalanches which, if actually experienced, would be life threatening.Intense emotion, ultimately creating a pleasurable experience.

    to me, sublime is not only landscape.it could be by object as well.

    “…within real meaning to certain expressions concerning the visible world the work of art by product” (Bachelard, G.1964)
