Karen Donnellan: Cosmic Flaccids, Supines, & Languids - Paul Ferguson - 06-03-2025

"The platonic solids are 3D polyhedra where each face is identical. In alchemical texts each form is associated with one of the five elements. The tetrahedron represents fire; the hexahedron, earth; the octahedron, air; the icosahedron, water; and the dodecahedron, ether (combining fire, earth, air and water). The star tetrahedron contains two intersecting  tedrahedra. It is the atomic structure of silicon chip quartz used in computers to store memory, as well as the shape of our energetic vehicle known as a Merkaba."
