| Description: |
The spectator is drawn by the
relationship of the viewer
of the image into
the world of invaluable cultural icons.
Semiotically,
we see the
short vertical line
representing
the inner ego
undulate towards the centre of the image,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The
embellished
background
enriches
the eternal interplay of Yin and Yang.
``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] |
