Catalogue Note
"I had used those shapes occasionally, but...never confronted them directly. I used them this time because I wanted some sort of image that would hold its presence. An image that I could manipulate, and...it's more complicated than that...You see, I knew that those shapes had emotional charge for me, but I didn't expect that charge to last as long as it did."
