"Bridget's Bardo"

I don't like this just for the name, although that alone is pretty cool. I don't even like it merely for the word Bardo — a Tibetan Buddhist concept that could be one definition of my current art project Interstice, (Tibetan 'between the two, inbetween state'). I also love it because it's by James Turrell and he's pretty cool. Here's a pic, and a link to an interview at Wallpaper.

Ahh, art as transcendence. Light, form, meditation combining to induce the mystical. I aspire to this.
