"A hundred failures would not matter when one single success could change the destiny of the world..." Arthur C. Clark, 2001: A Space Odyssey
Prequel to the "Artifacts" works, the "Instructions and Prototypes" paintings and objects imagine the eons ago interactions of a mysterious unseen interdimensional intelligence attempting to transfer forbidden knowledge and information to the prehistoric settlers of the Earth.
With their discovery of instructions written in a strange otherworldly semiotic language, Earth's earliest inhabitants collaborated to produce crude but earnestly made multivalent objects in an attempt to bridge from what they knew to what would be incomprehensible to them.
