From Tabula Rasa to Universal Knowledge
The journey of life: We are born with a clean slate – completely innocent and with no prejudice or information whatsoever – like a paper with no impression on it. The world is black and white, there are no shades of gray. Through the eye, innocence is a dove perceiving life as a journey that it is about to initiate.
In the second phase, by their nature, the two birds of prey – representing Genetic Heritage and Experience – devour innocence. In exchange, they color the surrounding world with perspective and dynamics.
The final part of the metamorphosis converts the virgin paper (i. e. the “tabula rasa”) into unlimited space, where the apple of wisdom and the fountain of expression are encountered.
As part of the transformation – the eye of innocence, the two birds of prey, and the apple with the pen – have the exact form although they are depicted in different colors and positions.
