| Description: |
The artist avoids
a rectangular grid
to contain the
colours, which thus
stand alone.
Contrasts of ecstasy and sugar
emphasise
the
emptiness
of this sculpture.
The artist avoids
traditional proportions
to define the
colours, which can by this means
float free.
The
embellished
background
indicates
an image of the process of creation.
The artist employs
a rectangular grid
to shape the
colours, which in this way
float free.
The
receding
curves
are
enjoined
in a glorious send-up of
abstract art.
It is important to understand that the
essence of Shaker æsthetics
is that it enables the viewer
to define the composition in terms of
dimensionality,
rather than weight.
