Perception conveys what words obscure.
Above, one does not see the fountain if the attention is directed elsewhere, yet it is nonetheless real. Until it is seen, it is beyond awareness, Once seen, it remains in mind and experience.
Language, particularly that which is highly "controlled" through cultural or political coercion, limits understanding to certain select elements of approved jargon and verbal cues, ultimately limiting the capacity to think independently. This is, in point of fact, the goal of such constraints.
Visual and sound arts direct experience beyond the merely material and physical. Abstract concepts and metaphysical fundamentals do not cease to exist simply because one will not acknowledge their being and reality.
There are essential expressions that will not be reduced to propaganda or subjugated to temporal power.
