IN-BETWEEN

PLEIN / VIDE


Walls with windows and doors form the house,
though the space within them
is the essence of the house.

This volume [...] would still embrace an equal measure of vacancy,
and would coincide with a portion of "space" and "vacuity" equal to itself.

ARISTOTLE

Space is not something objective and real, nor a substance,
nor an accident, nor a relation; instead, it is subjective and ideal [...]

IMMANUEL KANT

Nothingness, like being, itself is sheer emptiness and lack of determinacy,
and so is itself nothing but indeterminate be-ing.

GEORG HEGEL

It would be wiser to [...] seek the Void when we
need rest, than to run after outer distraction.

CARL JUNG

Time and space are modes by which we think
and not conditions in which we live.

ALBERT EINSTEIN
