Event Description |
In a series of large star- or planet-like images in acrylic on unstretched canvas, Miglioli displays her life-long interest in the cosmologic topic of how the material universe came to be. A single big bang, perhaps, but she also believes that the continuity of the universe encompasses all the events, great and small, which make up our lives.
In fact she asserts that our linear vision of life, in which one thing follows another, is itself a human construct. “Measured time is a tool we have created to organize events, slicing up the continuum to make it seem manageable.” In this continuity of consciousness, she feels, there is hope for a kind of immortality. “Of course we do not live forever,” she says. “But each person’s consciousness is a part of the whole, and with this knowledge we can accept loss, change, creation and destruction.”
