I still get the shudders looking at some of these. <BR/>I had a customer come look at some work yersterday and he ended up taking away this [url]http://www.foundobjectsgallery.com/scene/pages/scene08.htm[/url]<BR/>As it happens he is a priest and psychologist and he did a reading of the content of each image and the relationship between them that was truly scary.

What I loved most about these was how some make immediate formal connections that carry the content, and others do the opposite, sometimes both within one fraternal twin pair. Dyptichs have a way of acting like mountains to echo emotions and thoughts back and forth, and also by acting as boundary layers, sometimes roomy enough to invite projection, others times crushingly narrow, extracting things from the viewer.<BR/><BR/>--- LuisLuishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14942782882001678270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38446021.post-48620706663593362007-05-17T11:22:00.000-06:002007-05-17T11:22:00.000-06:00Those are really nice.
