dc.description.abstractWhen Marcel Duchamp created the notorious Nude Descending a Staircase No. 2, in 1912, he was proclaiming a new beachhead for avant-gardism in New York. Norbert Attard’s inspiration for his Tree Descending a Staircase goes beyond the mere concept of movement and radical and ironic ideas. It is symbolic of the artist’s unconscious. The archetypal descent to the unconscious could be interpreted as the artist’s journey into the depths of the unconscious psyche in search of the ‘self’. Ascending to a higher level signifies the spiritual growth of the individual or various possibilities of self-transformation.en_GB
