Lot Essay

‘Among all the possible conditions derived from the concept of movement, only one is aesthetic: resting restlessness — it is the expression of continuous movement, which we call “vibration”, and which our eyes experience aesthetically. Its harmony stirs our souls, as the life and breath of the work… To me, movement is the true form of a work’ – H. Mack
