NATURA NATURANS
March 20, 2017
Fisrt week of March the artist and philosopher Leon Ka from Barcelona visited us for The Sea Container project.
After a few days in Amsterdam, Leon Ka delighted us with "Natura Naturans" a deep philosophical creation, own of his studies and artistic work.
In The Sea Container Leon Ka has tried to outline part of the system from the philosopher, born in Amsterdam, Baruch Spinoza. In such system what is, in general sense, is the substance (Nature Naturans), its attributes are the perceived essence of said entity, while modes are what is in something else. Extension and thought are the two knowable attributes of substance -among the infinite attributes that are- . Among the various possible conceptual taxa are attributes and modes, which are deployed once in the attribute and the immediate infinite mode: movement and rest, which implies physicality, with respect to the first; And infinite understanding, that is, that which implies some idea, with respect to the second.
