The Door

« Obsidian was used by the Aztecs to make dark mirrors used for fortune-telling. Maybe that is why it symbolizes the passage between two worlds. Here the stone is set in light, the better to plumb its mysteries. As an object of fascination it therefore gives us a glimpse into a hidden dimension, a parallel universe that it seems to contain, concentrating all of space within its finite volume. »
