TONY LLOYD: OTHER
WORLDS AT DIANNE TANZER GALLERY
31 AUGUST - 5 OCTOBER 2013
There may be other worlds, some right next to ours. We cannot see
these other dimensions. Light can’t get through the barrier that separates this
world from the others. Some say gravity flows through all dimensions and that
we feel the pull of mass from realms that are invisible to us. Others say that
space can be folded so that distant points could be a hair’s breadth away, just
the other side of this plane. Places on opposite sides of the Earth, or even
light years away in space could, from a different perspective, be seen side by
side.
Perhaps there is a viewpoint, somewhere in the universe, from which
all these convolutions of space can be seen; a Rosetta dimension that would
reveal a wholly different ordering of space: a world where parallel lines
intersect, where mirrors reflect other views, where mountains are suspended
above us and the sky is beneath our feet - a view into an entirely other world.
