Something that potentially is implies that it will in the future actually be, if it is deemed possible. Let us say that an existence that has formed itself totally around a premise that is finite, life and all activity will cease and then it will disappear because everything about it relies on this (apparent) fact, but it does only explain a form or forms that consist of things that derive and are eventually erased. Our focus is normally directed towards a possibility that can be realistically fulfilled within the time that we have, but what if something, (such as painting) requires a much longer period connected to the very slow activity that it requires. Some Minimalists believed, one true single work of Art was adequate.

This is not my current project of course. Something that potentially is, implies that in the future it will actually be. My work in a philosophical sense will in actuality be infinite. It exists beyond a realm that is merely finite? however the world we are in now has expiry dates and reminders stamped all over it. It is all we can predicate so far unfortunately.

Surely once we have firstly accounted for and completed everything that has a definite outcome in this universe, then we have to face a reality that no longer has a clear point of resolution, or one that has no resolution at all. It gets boring when we predict outcomes all the time. A random process is made intricate. We are so involved in our current study that we can not see its outcome! To focas on where it will arrive and then discontinue is a distraction. Innocence returns at this point. Example- the Seascapes are one series of paintings and I can clearly see how they will be shown with audio in a slightly darkened room, because they are about light, just like a screen is lit.
