Notes
For there is space there, and we will take of these materials, and we will make an earth whereon these may dwell. —Abraham 3:24 “My purpose is not to show space as we may see it through the telescope but to picture elements moving together to form this beautiful heavenly body we call the earth. One may identify these elements as basic materials to be found in our surroundings. Other elements in my artwork are purely abstract in the shapes and motion that they illustrate.” —Pekka K. Jarvinen
