listen to perspective

"Each person looks at a work differently. The artist might have an intent when he does a work, but each one of us comes from a different experience, and so it's impossible for each person to see the object in the same way and so the object doesn't change, but the people say different things about it. When you discuss the work: all these different words come out. And so we're beginning to understand each other rather than the piece, and the piece becomes a catalyst for us to understand each other and if we listen to each other, we learn something about ourselves rather than the piece."    
Reinhold Marxhausen, Koenig Connection
