Representation

Rene Magritte wants to destabilise our certainty about what it is that images and language represent. "This is a pipe if you are thinking of a smoking device. This is not a pipe if you had a piece of plumbing in mind. Magritte points out that a pipe is not always a pipe. It depends upon what you have in mind". That can be a simple mistake buy having two differnt sides to the stories as you would have to find the right image and language.
