Notes

'A figure made up of several sweeping curves. Initially, it appears as a loosely drawn figure eight...easily produced, endlessly fascinating, twisted and lopped...having neither inside nor outside, exists as a single, continuous surface.' (M. Archer, 'Cerith Wyn-Evans', in Parkett, Vol. 87, http://www.parkettart.com/downloadable/download/sample/sample_id/13, p. 107 [accessed 4th August 2014])
