COGNITIVE
IN THE
WHEEL HOUSE
To
see the wheel turning was very soothing, very comforting, a sort of
opening of avenues on other things than material life of every day. I
liked the idea of having a bicycle wheel in my studio. I enjoyed looking
at it just as I enjoy looking at the flames dancing in a fireplace. It
was like having a fireplace in my studio, the movement of the wheel
reminded me of the movement of the flames.
