This is one of the largest pieces that I have created to date, measuring 40 inches in diameter. Attached to the frame are handwritten musical scores on cotton fiber paper, a cut up violin, and a polyphon disc at the center. There are 4 light sources structured within, one behind each of the musical scores, and one directly at the center. And the absense of light in the remaining areas is as important to this work as the light itself. The overall effect of this piece is cubist, while the light in the center draws one focus, almost like a giant eye. When all the other lights are out in the room, I find that this piece can have an almost hypnotic effect.
See if you can figure out the original purpose of the round 40 inch frame that these items are attached to. Hint: it is something very common to France and it is alluded to in the title.
