JULES BRASSAI ~ ON THE EXTRAORDINARY

in Art & the Unconscious Mind by

“I don’t invent anything. I imagine everything… most of the time, I have drawn my images from the daily life around me. I think that it is by capturing reality in the humblest, most sincere, most everyday way I can, that I can penetrate to the extraordinary.”
