DESCRIPTION
Plato’s dialog the Timaeus begins with a distinction between the physical world, and the eternal world. The physical one is the world which changes and perishes: therefore it is the object of opinion and unreasoned sensation. The eternal one never changes: therefore it is apprehended by reason. These ideas became analogous to the program of the Burial Chapel in my mind. I saw the Chapel as representing the eternal world since the religious ceremony takes place inside the chapel. The Garden of Remembrance then became the physical world that changes and perishes, with the unattended garden at its heart, literally represents loss as it erratically changes with the passing of time.
