Bill Viola, Heaven and Earth, 1992 The exposed tubes of two black and white video monitors are positioned facing each other, separated by a few inches and mounted at the ends of two wood columns that extend from the floor and ceiling respectively. The upper monitor shows video footage of the artist’s mother on her deathbed and the lower monitor shows the face of his newborn son only days old. Since the glass surface of each monitor reflects the image on the opposing screen, the birth-face and the death-face appear simultaneously as layered reflections within each other’s image. The video images are silent and the entire structure is enclosed in a small room.

Hermetic philosophy is the original gnostic reflection on certainties which can be comprehended and understood, and which constitute a key to a door which opens eternity for man and closes the order of time and space behind him.
