"Red over
Dark Blue on
Dark Gray"

The imaginal vision reveals when man renounces to the dominant and possessive perspective of his sight which -by dismissing- becomes contemplative and receptive, able to recognise the marks of the innumerable weave of reticular affinities which, according to the hermetic theories, crosses all the forms of being.
Imaginal is a research group created by Paolo Mottana,
Philosophy of education Professor in Milano - Bicocca University.
The group is consisting of
Francesca Antonacci, Marina Barioglio, Fabio Botto, Raul Citterio,
Paolo Mottana, Giovanni Rizzo, Costanza Sorrenti.

Twisting the sight to the direction of its East, of its imaginative pole rooted into the material of the world and of its invisible but persistent texture, one enters the imaginal world, that is the world of the visions, of the art, of the spiritual bodies that images become when they
  balance the sensible pole with the intellectual one.

It is the imaginal that can save our sight from its deterioration, which can grant a meaningful, rooted, fertile vision, able to endure the inflation of “ idola ” and simulacra that nowadays the obscenity of the visible daily celebrates and, through this pharmacopoeia, can modify the position of man in the world, restoring his original sight and ceasing the long time abuse on nature and on the symbolic dimension of spiritual life.
