The stage of pre or non-ceptual art and spirituality

By Ulrich de Balbian

The ideas I suggest and will attempt to explore can be expressed and conceptualized in many ways.

Wittgenstein suggested that there are things that cannot be talked about.

I suggest that we most likely have ideas, attitudes, words, conceptions, notions, values, standards, opinions, etc when we approach any work of art or perceive anything as art or aesthetic. Just as we have notions, ideas etc concerning spirituality and spiritual phenomena.

But during the interaction with those things, when having a direct experience or consciousness, an awareness of them we do not employ words, ideas or concepts.

Of course we can and most likely will reflect on those experiences and the things we have or had experiences of. At that stage we will use concepts in those contexts we will use notions and verbalize things - after the experiences, after the event. We will also, most likely, reflect on those phenomena and experiences.

I then continue to place this state or stage of pre- or non- or not yet conceptual/ity in the larger contexts of consciousness, anthropocentered socio-cultural practices and the universe or multiverse.
