The traditional categories - painting, sculpture, stagecraft, etc - no longer respond to reality. Personally, I think this is due to the crisis in our psychic space and the boundaries that separate the object and the subject. In the same way that there is a breaking down of the boundaries between objects, there is an intrication [sic] of the roles of the artist and the spectator, erasing the borders between the self and the other. This lack of differentiation can have a dramatic effect on some people: loss of sense of self, hallucinations, etc. But it can also give rise to jubilation, because it creates a sense of osmosis with Being, the Absolute. - Julia Kristeva
