Because the ‘impossible’ paradoxes of the Incarnation, under cover of divine transcendence, touched the very heart of an imminence that we might qualify, with Freud, as metapsychological— the imminence of this human capacity to invent impossible bodies … in order to know something of real flesh, of our mysterious, our incomprehensible flesh. This capacity is properly called the power of figurability.
Georges Didi-Huberman, Confronting Images
