WRITING BY LYGIA CLARK 1960-1963/ THE DEATH OF THE PLANE,[1960]

The plane is a concept invented by man with practical objective: to satisfy need for balance. The square, an abstract creation, is a product of the plane.By arbitrarily marking limits in space, the plane gives man an entirely false and rational idea of his own reality. From it come the opposing concepts, such as high and low, obverse and reverse, that have contributed to destroying in man the sentiment of totally. And that is also the reason why man project his transcendent part and gave it the name of God. In this way he disposed of the problem of his existence - by inventing the mirror of his own spirituality.

(First paragraph)
P.158

平面是人類為了「滿足平衡的需求」，而發明的一個具有實際目的的概念。方形，一個抽象的創造物，則是平面的產物。透過武斷的標記空間的界線，平面給人一個與完全錯誤和理性的想法。隨之而來相對的概念，例如：高與低、正面與背面，對完全摧毀人類的情感作出貢獻。這也是為什們人類鑽研超驗的部分並將其命名為上帝的原因。透過這種方式，人類發明自己的靈性之鏡來解決自身存在的問題。

嘔齁齁齁齁～靈性之鏡～洗勒公仨小～～～
