| Description: |
A constantly
changing
network,
the scale and openness
of which
never changes,
is always in a different form
by the perception
of the outer surface.
An interesting side of this particular carving is that it is the spiritual dimension and its
endless possibilities.
Such forms, both monumental and poetic, create disarmingly intenste sensations.
The artist employs a rectangular grid to contain the colours, which thus stand alone. Contrasts of summer and autumn march across the emptiness of this work. ``What does it all mean? I have little idea... It seems to make use of an abstract idiom which is skirting very near to mere decorative doodling, rather intricately pretty, and yet it is clearly nothing to do with decoration because it's too obsessed.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.232] |
