The art object can be decoded and the message transmitted in the same way as mathematicians share information and skill's beauty through their equations.





"To a person whose transfigured and transfiguring mind can see the All in every thing, the first-rateness or tenth-rateness of even a religious painting will be a matter of the most sovereign indifference. Art, I suppose, is only for beginners, or else for those resolute dead-enders, who have made up their minds to be content with the ersatz of Suchness, with symbols rather than with what they signify, with the elegantly composed recipe in lieu of actual dinner.............


........Space was still there; but it had lost its predominance. The mind was primarily concerned, not with measures and locations, but with being and meaning.


And along with indifference to space there went an even more complete indifference to time...."
A. Huxley: The Doors of Perception



A good reason for doing installations my way is that they need no big space for storage. Storage being a major problem for sculptors as well as for painters, the best solution would be sales and the worst is destruction. In between there is reuse. I use the same materials over and over, and as the installations are not apt for sales, the different elements are always handy except when exposing outside my studio.
