The Image Before Words: How We See Our World
What we see shapes who we become long before language enters our minds. A child recognizes faces, distinguishes objects, and navigates spaces before uttering their first word. This primacy of vision establishes our initial relationship with the world-a relationship that remains in flux throughout our lives. Our eyes constantly move, making thousands of micro-adjustments per minute, creating what might be called a "circle of vision" with ourselves at the center. We don't simply absorb images passively; we actively select what we see, positioning ourselves in relation to it. Yet simultaneously, we're aware that others see us. This reciprocal nature of vision-seeing and being seen-forms the foundation of human interaction. When you catch a stranger's glance across a crowded room, you're participating in an exchange more primal than speech. This visual dialogue shapes our social connections from infancy through adulthood. Every image, from ancient cave paintings to Instagram photos, embodies a particular way of seeing. Even photographs, which appear to be mechanical reproductions of reality, reflect countless choices-subject, angle, timing, framing, light. Images evolved from conjuring absent appearances to becoming records of how someone perceived something. They capture not just what was seen, but a perspective on what was seen.
