“For the idea that governs Byzantine (and patris

“For the idea that governs Byzantine (and patristic) thought is that of communion, which presupposes the voluntary meeting of hypostases, or persons, in a relationship of love. In this way a form must also have inner and external movement in order that it might express and reflect this vision of life. Inwardly, it must not be simple but composite, consisting of smaller units, which come together and exist in harmonious unity within their common rhythm. … These units are distinguished by, and receive their unique existence or hypostasis through line, which, as we have already said, is the mode of existence of color.” ~ George Kordis.
