John got me two Vasarely paperweights for Christmas, and I spend too much time watching them. Occasionally, I take one in each hand and fly them through the air as I zoom around the room. There’s no way to stop them, even when they’re sitting on the worktable in front of me. They’re not alive, I know, but the little glass domes can hardly contain the insistence of the colors and patterns, the blur and the sharpness, the real and the impossible.

The happy feeling in the verbal part of your post is matched by the happy feeling that seeing these photographs gives me. Beautiful.
I appreciate the comment. Thanks.
Fascinating.
Thanks. I really love these two objects, and I wanted to try to have my photos do them some justice.
I’d be playing with them, too, when they look this great!
