Left – Ritual of the Two Rival Tribes – Here I utilize the superior shape of the triangle to represent the dominating rhythm and the powerful propulsion of the polyphonic harmony. The gestures emanate with explosive masculine force.
Right – Procession of the Oldest and Wisest – By using a veritable polyphony of ostinato (represented by the triangle and sphere), which overlap each other to create complex webs of rhythmic and melodic patterns, obviates the need for traditional harmonic progression. Layering of ostinato occurs during this tableaux and is mimicked in the painting.
