Description:
A construction—the dramaturgy of an approach—a set where the action is unclear. A narrative is coyly embedded in the wall text. Words glint beneath mirrors that have been rendered mute. A phrase in a dead language, amicus usque ad aras (a friend even to the altar of sacrifice). Light emanates from a table burdened with precariously stacked vessels of milk glass. The illumination burns through the upturned vessels, glowing uncannily in the mirrors, until our shadows pass across.
