"Casaranello Cupola," a painted piece of plaster, is a small piece of something much larger: the splendiferous 5th Century Byzantine dome I saw in an out-of-the-way chapel in Puglia. The vibrant blue and gold 'cup' makes a fine dancing partner to the white computer icon, "Rogers and Out."
Both the dome and the laptop screen are imprints of pieces of the world into which humans have cast their eyes and imagination and invitations for viewers to do the same.
