(White) Tactile Object with Hinges 1969

Curator: So, here we have Paul Neagu's "(White) Tactile Object with Hinges." Editor: Well, isn't it intriguing? It feels like a deconstructed puzzle or some odd little altar. Curator: Neagu was fascinated by the idea of "hyphen," that in-between space. Look at how the two halves are joined by hinges, suggesting connection and separation. Editor: I see that, and I'm drawn to the wood itself – the texture, those small holes that punctuate the surface…it’s almost like braille, begging to be touched. Curator: Absolutely! It’s very tactile. Neagu aimed to engage multiple senses. It invites a kind of meditative exploration. Editor: Right, a material conversation, if you will. It's unassuming but full of potential, like a secret waiting to be unfolded. Curator: Precisely, a humble object holding layers of meaning. Editor: I'll carry that image with me.
