Antonakos
notes that his books, similarly to his rooms and chapels, because of being
enclosed, ‘work like private arenas for inner experience. With the books,
although the sequence is set, every viewer finds his or her own pace or
rhythm of turning the pages. Within this conscious structure, it is the
discoveries made by the unconscious that continually bring things to life"
(Artist’s notes, in Cat. Stephen Antonakos: Inner Light, Smith College
Museum of Art, Northampton, Mass., 1997)
