| Description: |
A temporally
changing
network,
the essential identity
of which
remains unchanged,
is sometimes entirely altered
by the essential fact
of the outer surface.
The prototype shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
``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] |
