VERBS - TO BEEHIVE
The
vocabulary
of
renovation
is
formed
by
key
words,
which
are
closely
associated
with
the
artist's
geometric
symbolism.
In
To
Beehive
-
a
word
coined
on
a
parallel
pattern
with
'to
behave'
-
the
eight
point
star
shines
over
the
Hexagon
-
a
symbol
which
is
central
to
the
sixteen paintings of the present series.
In
Pegado's
code,
we
may
recall,
the
Hexagon
represents
the
orderly
society,
a
society
ruled
by
a
sense
of
equanimity
and
justice,
an
open
society
where
each
individual
has
her/his
own
place
as
a
free
being
and
where
the
pair
(female
and
male)
find
the
ground
for
their
fulfilment and well-being.
Being
the
sign
of
a
refined
experience
the
eight-point
star
encompasses
in
itself
the
Octagon
- the fusion of the pair in the variations of the Quadrangle.
