"If you're going to be a visual artist, then there has to be something in the work that accounts for the possibility of the invisible, the opposite of the visual experience. That's why it's not like a table or a car or something. I think that that might even be hard for people because most of our visual experiences are of tables.

And how the artist engineers or manages that is the question."

The gift that gets controlled or stopped, which hinders the others from coming into fullness, is the prophet's gift and authority.
