"The eye is black, alive, shaded.
So rare.
So peculiar.
It sees like nobody else does.
It reveals what each of us may want to see.
Transcends matter.
Sublimates light.
We could think it captures melting gold,
it captures salmon roe.
We think of rivers of ink,
oriental veils,
delicate stained glass,
heavy velvet,
airy lace,
it unveils the flesh of the eggplant,
carves the tenderness of the cucumber,
penetrates the fibre of the turnip,
stretches that of the carrot,
reveals the intimacy of the fig,
the folds of the leek.
And there, fans? Pleated tissues? Brushstrokes?
No, fogu fins.
Wings, as she says.
What to believe?
Mathilde's eye? Ours?
The game begins."
