James Ensor (1860-1949) My defunct mother (Mijn dode moeder), 1915
vision
Par la force d'une cuisson mutuelle
les ingrédients deviennent amers et vieux,
La chaleur coagule les liquides ;
Qui sont comme des poussières sur une fenêtre éclairée,
Devenu "cendre morte", je serai uni au silence suprême.

“Drenched in British purples, I have offered up my tones: pigeon breast, hind belly, balky mule lung, monkey bottom pink, lapis lazuli and malachite, excited nymph thigh, panther pee-pee, high-smelling hen hair, hedgehog in aspic, barrel-maker’s brothel, revered rose, monkeybush, turkey-like white, sly violet, page’s slipper, immaculate nun spring, unspeakable red, Ensor azure, affected yellow, mummy skull, rock-hard gray, brunt celadon, shop soiled smoke ring.”_James Ensor

“I have seen born, pass and die many schools and promoters of ephemera — Pointillists, Impressionists, Cubists, Futurists, etc., etc… And so, I have cried with all my lungs: The louder these bullfrogs croak the closer they are to bursting. My friends, works of a personal vision alone will live.”
