Regarding the viewer dissecting the work
At some point, he just can’t go any further. Unity he can experience. Pieces he can connect. But the link between these two escapes him. At last, after having taken all apart, he gets an eye in return. This is how he discoveres the connection: not as a symbol, not as an understanding, but as himself. He recognises it as the will to create, the will to assign. He experiences a wealth of possibilities, he experiences himself as a possibility.
