“Aesthetic Experience as Quickening”

 

Artwork by John Diamond, M.D.

 

The quickening: the mother’s first awareness of the baby within.

And by capitalizing – Quickening – I am referring to the mother’s first awareness of the baby as spirit within her.

Every aesthetic experience
should be a Quickening.
As should be every moment of life.

It’s the music I hear,
but it’s the spirit I feel
– I am Quickened.
