El silencio como lengua para la contemplación: acercamiento sensorial a Edmond Jabès y James Turrell

In order to reflect on the literary work of Edmond Jabès and the artistic work of James Turrell, this article explores the concept of contemplative and introspective silence through the senses of sight, hearing, and touch. It presents a notion of silence that goes beyond mere absence, emphasizing how deep introspection and contemplation of inner states connect both creators. The focus is on how the writer and the artist draw on sensory experiences to evoke emotions and lead the reader or observer into new realms of understanding. To this end, the article examines the specific techniques employed by each, such as Jabès' use of language and Turrell's manipulation of light and space.
