| As Jonathan Porretta wound his way through the tangle of men and women, he showed that verticality is just a matter of taste and perspective. For instance, one might as easily make translations of the word papalagi to the verticality of European ships, and in the slippage of language to subsequent mercantile and monotheistic interpretations, which could all hold true for their time without creating a genealogical value (as Tcherkezoff traces inexorably) beyond the sound of a word. The verticality of the structure is articulated by projecting brick piers that are divided every other story by a cast stone plinth. |
