What was Kokoschka's view on the role of art?
Art, for me, is not a decoration or a simple reflection of reality. It is a vital force, a means of understanding the human condition and the anxieties of existence. Through art, one can confront the complexities of the psyche, the clash of desires, and the profound emotional truths that lie at the heart of human experience. My work strives to be a form of spiritual investigation, engaging directly with the viewer's own inner world.
