Goat reflects the master’s notions of canon and law, the “seeing eye” and the “knowing eye”, madeness and the analytical method. The “knowing eye” reveals the hidden, invisible processes of nature. The organic self-development of the form creates a new plastic structure, from which the “formula” of a goat appears and disappears.
