Why are you so against illustration in your art?

Because illustration is a form of opinion and therefore uninteresting

Or rather opinion is limiting to the point of self-destruction

It’s the by-product or effluent of language in league with the senses defining our surface world

Why are you interested in idealism, formalism and abstraction?

Because I’m interested in bypassing language and our senses as these are what our world is built from and not what the world is. They are superficial and belong to the surfaces of things.
