How is that statement constructed?
What are the signifiers?
Do we piece together -- building a whole from the parts?
Or do we breakdown the whole to a single part?
Does each part carry the same meaning as the whole?
How does the viewer read the signifiers?
Does the whole make its statement if it is out of context?
Does the statement need an explanation or a statement of intent from the artist?
