As Plato has stated, "the flux of events cannot be precisely stated because it is never precisely envisaged". Relativity, the flux of forms in relation to one another, can be expressed by the camera's position. From sky to earth, from earth to sky, stolen light projects a dictionary into the lens. From the ceiling to the floor, and from one side of the room to the other, stolen light projects a mirror onto the walls. Point of view is dedicated by the camera, but is alas lost to the eye of the viewer. The twin figure on the groud/sky suffers a second death or a psychological travelogue to paradise.
