Infinitely beautiful (2021) is based on Arthur Streeton’s La Salute, from Riva Schiavoni (c.1908) in the collection of the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra. Inscribed across the surface are the poetic words of Martin Heidegger from his text The History of Beyng: History is the coming of that which comes, and for this reason alone, also the past of that which goes and the having been of what has been, and thereby also the presence of whatever is passing.
