Here we see an untitled print by Manuel Felguérez, a composition of geometric forms rendered in earthy hues. Circles, triangles, and rectangles dominate the visual space, evoking a sense of underlying structure. Notice how the circle, an ancient symbol of wholeness and cyclical time, is bisected, fragmented. This recalls the alchemical symbol of the 'ouroboros,' the snake eating its own tail, a metaphor for eternal return. The fragmented circle suggests an understanding of the infinite, and the transient nature of existence. Consider how this motif echoes through time, from the mandalas of Eastern traditions to the rose windows of Gothic cathedrals. These shapes are constantly reinvented, speaking to our collective unconscious and yearning for completion. The interplay of light and shadow, the dynamic between geometric shapes, triggers a primeval response, hinting at the universal patterns woven into the fabric of existence. This is an expression of how symbols re-emerge in different forms, carrying echoes of past meanings into the present.
