Metataxis in Obloquy Revisited 10
Unlike a conventionally-carved pumpkin, which can only be appreciated when viewed from one specific direction, Metataxis in Obloquy Revisited engages in a dialogue with the viewer from all directions; it is embedded in the same three-dimensional space of which the viewer is an essential part. Thus, in a real and profound sense, the pumpkin gazes at its beholder in no less degree than the beholder gazes at the pumpkin. In contrast to the passivity of the traditionally-carved pumpkin, Metataxis in Obloquy Revisited engages in a conspiratorial interaction with its beholder, actively transforming the space in which both co-exist. The transactional matrix becomes charged with active, multidirectional force vectors completely alien to all previous human-squash interchanges.
