More quotes by Jean Helion
The image gets built one way or another... it doesn't get done by following the natural order of things, but arises instead from an order that you have in your mind.
Jean Helion
Imaginations blossom amidst memories. One judiciously separates them - but is there really any point in that? Doesn't truth suffer when one amputates it from its context of dreams?
Jean Helion

Jean Helion
Sometimes when looking through my pile of drawings, I find an image that... awakens in me a passionate desire to inhabit it, as though I were to feel more at home in it than in myself.
Jean Helion
