Changing Time
The painting shown is one in a series of four. The four paintings were broadly conceived as a quartet of interrelated works based on a common theme of time and location.
The titles are self-explanatory and give clues about the significance of the iconography.
Three of the paintings contain mechanical contraptions designed by early European astronomers and mathematicians to plot the apparent movement of heavenly bodies.
The paintings present a complex series of images and symbols for the contemplation and personal interpretation.
