• The relationship between art and object seems to be one which:

  "…like nature - or art itself for that matter - has no precise beginnings or endings, like the waves of the sea, always the same but never alike." (Ellen H Johnson)

  "Vala! I am Doctor Hutchinson, have a seat. How are you feeling?"

  "Very well, well, you know all things considered, you would assume I would be a prime candidate for acculturation difficulty, enduring feelings of displacement and alienation, perhaps a little paranoid ideation, the truth is I was able to adopt an abstract attitude which allowed me to release some of my repressed feelings, ultimately providing me with a cathartic actualization, how are you feeling?" (SG-1)
