The aim of art is to prepare a person for death, to plough and harrow his soul, rendering it capable of turning to good.
My function is to make whoever sees my films aware of his need to love and to give his love, and aware the beauty is summoning him.
The artist is always the servant, and is perpetually trying to pay for the gift that has been given to him as if by a miracle. Modern man, however, does not want to make any sacrifice, even though true affirmation of the self can only be expressed in sacrifice.
It seems to me that the individual today stands at a crossroads, faced with the choice of whether to pursue the existence of blind consumer, subject to the implacable march of new technology and the endless multiplication of material goods, or to seek out a new way that will lead to spiritual responsibility, a way that ultimately might mean not only his personal salvation but also the saving of society at large; in other words, to turn to God.
Andrei Tarkovsky, Sculpting in Time
