Basing on the interpretation of Cyprian Kamil Norwid’s poems and other works the author presents the observation that a human being appears and exists when is being perceived. It means that the process of seeing is the creative act. The artist’s gaze described by the poet provides the perfect example of the interrelation of being, being seen and creating by seeing. It also stresses the role of dialogue in becoming human. Such an artistic activity bridges the gulf between the world of ideas and the real life. It is a part of the real life and the pattern for creative living as a human being.
