To be abstract is to be metaphysical, or alienated from concrete being.
The act of abstraction is the isolation or disconnection of being from the concrete (actual) – the changing of what is actual into something lifeless – which leads analytical thought to one-sidedness, isolation, immobility, or dogmatism on the part of the subject.
The abstract is directly opposed to the concrete.
