Notes: “Le Duc d’Urbino fatidique”: Fatal application of Black Body Physics. The Black Body is a beautiful body. This technique uses Black Body Physics to generate the trajectory of a line (shaft of light) that enters, through a tiny hole, into a sealed body (the outlined forms in this painting). This constraint boasts an exceptional executional economy; for each black body, a single pin-prick triggers and determines the work’s total completion.
