In Thresholds for the Fathomless-Now Alan Finkel has taken over the old root cellar to make an arena for the passage of time, as he found
it described in the paragraph by Octavo Paz. The walls have been grouted and a sunken chamber has been cleared in the dirt to a hold a set of transparent glass panels which catch and redistribute daylight. In their enclosed manger-like space, the panels glow with an intense aura that seems to enlarge their actual dimensions, and that contributes to a sense of abiding peace. Reverence is an attitude, Finkel seems to be saying; it is based in a respect for the forces at work in small places, such as seeds, yet it expands to fill the cosmos.
