Max Coyer found an image from a dream so striking that he began a series of paintings from it, each depicting a single cone, point down. To the sides of each cone was the arc of a circle. The result could be read as a cone spinning on top of a round table. In an anthropomorphic sense, however, the cone could be read as an abstract head with the circle’s arc as two shoulders.

These paintings were done over Coyer’s previous abstract paintings, adding complexity and richness to the new creations.
