This work proposes the criteria and offers a narration on the universal theme which it has come to symbolise. In staging the obvious as well as the unexplored aspects the artist renders the motif visible. Fundamentally equivocal the subject matter is situated within sequences and repetitions, overlaid and proportioned by the underlying form. This uniquely problematises the act of depiction, requiring the observer to simultaneously accept the palpable reality and then, negate it.
