62. The place of nothingness, absence, and denial in art and science.
The objective of the following lines is to undergo a clear distinction between nothingness and other concepts that have usually been alike to it, such as denial and absence; at the same time, following said distinction, attention will be centered on demonstrating the place that nothingness has occupied, through its analogies, in the world of science and art. Among other things, the intention held by this study is to point out that knowledge is not only centered on the tangible or on things that are; rather, that it requires, just like art, the notion of a reality not centered on the being. Nothingness is, therefore, as a container of infinite possibilities, the source of the materialization of scientific findings and works of art.
