Note du spécialiste

'Establishment of a surface is the primary move, since the parting from and clinging to a surface is the essence of a relief. Then that space which lies between the surface and the highest point become a sphere of play, or conflict, between opposites, representing the desire to break away and the inability to leave.'
- Mary Martin
