The image as a fetish - enshrining a spirit - is
appropriate as art when you reflect on Jung's
universal sysmbols. You must accept that there is
Spirit-That-Is-In-All-Things and that Spirit is
Love, and is represented as beauty when viewed in
a social-restricted mind set or in a form of
meditation or intuition or instinct. Asthetics of
icons is only enhanced when the Inner-Self is
connected with the icon. Therefore patterens in
Nature that are represented by icons, reveal
themselves as beauty to a viewer who is able to
sense the connection of All Things. A fetish is
art because it contains the spirit of what it
represents and shines forth as beauty.
