“Terry always saw object and sound and movement and words and images all as the material for his art. He was so deeply inspired by aesthetics, philosophy, spirituality, music, history and culture, and he had such a fertile and generative mind, that he was always able to move between many different ideas and create a lot of space and meaning in a work.” Thelma Golden, 2014.
