This picture was taken to represent the power of three, presented by the author of Overlay, Lucy Lippard. The number three is a powerful number because it is the smallest number that can be used to make a geometric shape. Lao Tzo said that tao generates one, one generates two, two generates three, and three generates all things. Also the self- reproducing principle of proportionate growth known as the Fibonacci spiral says that every number is tied to a process of nature. Three seems to be the most attached number to nature. However, I am unsure as to what ultimate process of nature three might be tied to. Possibly the creation of non-human influenced Earth Art.
