Mark Ryden is good. What do the proportions of his characters mean? They mean what music "means", for plastic art and music are the means to say what words cannot say. "If I could put this painting into words, I wouldn't have had to paint it."
One might say that logocentricity is the forgetfulness of music and image, a sort of deafness and blindness to all that is not metaphor, for that's what thinking is, isn't it?
