art galleries. you know the type... exhibits with carefully spaced works to see, not touch - and if you try, or appear to come close to possibly trying, you may have to speak with a certain someone who otherwise stands silently in the corner. a protector of the collection, the assets, the wealth which most galleries represent.
lets imagine a gallery wall with evenly spaced pieces of similar height - lets create a red horizontal line to encapsulate the pieces on the wall, a stripe. now lets tweak that to fit the design of a candy cane, but inverted. we find ourselves in a circular passage, these lines of works swirling from the wall to the ceiling to the other wall to the floor and back on up.. with a base understanding being you can walk on these things, touch them! case in point, a rather large piece in the center of the exhibit which takes all possible floor space; a painting of lava... see you on the other side!
