I started this painting one day: it shaped itself in the first 40 minutes, I think, and then I felt weak, couldn't continue, left. Leaving the Cave is surfacing to the everyday life. I did just that. I returned to the painting a week later but couldn't finish it again. Distracted. It took another two weeks to gather courage to descend to the Cave and finish.
The wife has awaken in those three weeks. She realized that images, the property of the dreams, without words, the property of the conscious state, will be forever berried in the Cave. There is no more powerful weapon than
the imageword, said the awakened wife. That was her revelation.
