From the exhibition catalogue: Anait, Retrospective 1966-1979

The object in real space, ‘time reversed’ is both visually and mentally challenging. I use the pseudoscopic image to free myself from the restrictions of ordinary 3-dimensionality; the projecting and receding images make space seem more solid to me and its confinements less so ...

As this awesome and exciting technology of holography is mastered by artists, one can scarcely imagine the future implications of such works. As for the present, ‘hanging “space” on a wall’ and ‘sculpting with light waves’ makes me feel that I am in my ‘real space time’.
