When your cup runneth over--or atop--all the other cups. As life is a journey of Cups. Apparently in Bak’s cups is the reference of someone who is drunk.
Clearly not in the top position!
The artist has managed to create a tasty layering of textures. The stone looks most edible. It is the tower of Babel constructed out of Cups.
We all struggle to get to the top position but why? So we can see all around or to dominate others or because we all live with the image of exceeding others?
As we age it may be worth asking, “why”? To what purpose do we need to stand on others simply to be on top?
If being there would enable us to help others so that they too can enjoy? This august position is maybe worth the effort. We can also expend our energy and efforts to level the playing field so that all people have a somewhat fair chance.
So many questions from the bottom up or from atop?
Still questions.
