How did Picasso deconstruct and reconstruct reality in his art?
I approached the canvas like a surgeon, dissecting forms and then reassembling them. It was about understanding the core elements of an object – its planes, its volumes, its essential characteristics – and then presenting them in a new order. This was not destruction for its own sake, but a process of revelation. By taking things apart, I aimed to show their inherent structure and to build them anew, offering a more profound understanding of their existence.
