El duende is the spirit of evocation. It is what gives you chills, makes you smile or cry as a bodily reaction to an artistic performance that is particularly expressive.This mysterious power which everyone senses and no philosopher explains. It dilates the mind's eye, so that the intensity becomes almost unendurable.There is a quality of first-timeness, of reality so heightened and exaggerated that it becomes unreal.

Gemma amalgamated a quote and this painting Hope II by Gustav Klimt and posted it to me today. I studied Klimt intensively in year 12. It was a great time. Lovely
