While you philosophically seek out the world itself, I exercise simply my effort on a maximum of appearances, in straight correlation with unknown realities.

Claude Monet at his house in Giverny, from Ceux de chez nous, dir. Sacha Guitry, 1915.

“Other painters paint a bridge, a house, a boat…I want to paint the air. I want to paint the air in which the bridge, the house and the boat are to be found — the beauty of the air around them, and that is nothing less than the impossible.”

— Claude Monet, from an interview conducted c. 1895, featured in “Monet in the Twentieth Century,”

Types of dissociation

1. Amnesia - this is when you can’t remember incidents or experiences that happened at a particular time, or when you can’t remember personal information.

2. Depersonalisation - a feeling that your body is unreal, changing or dissolving. It also involves out of body experiences, such as seeing yourself as if watching a movie or floating above.

3. Derealisation - the world around you seems unreal. You may see objects changing in shape, size or colour, or you may feel that other people are robots or generally unreal.

4. Identity confusion - feeling uncertain about who you are. You may feel as if there is a struggle within to define yourself.

5. Identity alteration - this is when there is a shift in your role or identity that changes your behaviour in ways that others would notice.

“You fool – you are afraid of being alone with you own mind. You just better learn to know yourself, to make sure decisions before it is too late. Your room is not your prison. You are.”
