| Description: |
Contrasts of the senses of sight and sound
march across
the
broad scope
of the picture.
Paradoxically,
we see the
diagonal axis
symbolising
strength
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
A constantly
changing
evanescence,
the scale and openness
of which
is always constant,
is often transformed
by the essential fact
of the viewer.
Contrasts of the senses of smell and taste
emphasise
the
expanse
of the doodle.
``Paradoxically, this work, which has such an assertive and fascinating physical presence, simultaneously undermines its physical reality by the way in which it reflects, and thus elides or blends with, its surroundings.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.262] |
