Gary Orlinsky Doorway to the Infinite Yes 2002 Wood, glass, porcelain, slate Hemlock Grove A Victorian urban cemetery is the ultimate place of transition- from the commotion and stress of the city to a place of tranquility and serenity, from built space to natural space, and, most importantly, from the known world (life) to the unknown world (death). Doorway to the Infinite Yes is a metaphoric entrance/exit way for all of these reasons. This piece also pays homage to e.e. cummings, whose grave site is nearby. By incorporating this most appropriate of poems into the work, we are able to clearly hear his voice, embracing life: i thank You God for most this amazing day;for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes List of Participating Artists
