White or black,
abundance or emptiness,
recollection or future,
success or mistake …

The water also has great aptitude to define,
both for the colour and for the smell.

Hauptpunkt (Essence) speaks of an experience that places the emphasis on the landscape, as the Romantics did in their day.
To contemplate, smell and enjoy nature, sharing and delighting in the unusual and the unknown, is a source of pleasure. And the pleasure it brings lies in the recognition of the ’perfect’ balance (subjective, of course) between the ideal and reality. Hauptpunkt (Essence) is thus a metaphor for life as a landscape, a high point of that journey in which we are able to return to the ’mirror of the soul’ through the contemplation and apprehension or comprehension of what surrounds us and of ourselves.
