To see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion - all in one.'

Sound of Silence   10x10cm acrylic on board    ©2022LisaLeQuelenec


'When you sit in silence long enough, you learn that silence has a motion.

It glides over you without any shape or form, exactly like water.

of wading in it. The sound is soft, like flute notes rising up,

like the words of glass speaking.'
