Movement one · seven panels · each on its own measured ground
Gilded
A panel is not a window.
A painted panel has no depth to offer. The gold behind the head is not sky and not wall — it is a refusal. These seven hang one to a screen, each mounted on the colour measured out of its own emulsion.
Almost nothing to see, and it is still an icon.
01 · R09 · ground #19100a
Two of her, and neither one is looking.
02 · R20 · ground #564c42
The first cold colour in the series.

One lens, the width of both eyes.
04 · R35 · ground #623b54
Gold — and it is on her eyes, not behind her.
05 · R12 · ground #69380c
The wall gives way and becomes a ground.
06 · R40 · ground #864b26
Two of them, and the ground is louder than either.
07 · R23 · ground #79604a
Seven grounds, and not one of them is a place.
