10. Unroll the 36 prototypes in a spiral, starting from the top-right and moving towards the center.
The unrolling becomes a sacred act of deployment. The thirty-six elements are not arranged linearly but according to the spiral, the path of evolution and return. The spiral guides the vision from manifestation back toward origin. Beginning from the top-right, the active and conscious pole, and moving inward toward the center, the gesture gathers multiplicity and leads it back to unity. This arrangement is not display but meditation, a geometric invocation.

11. They will be built in reverse to the flow of time and deconstructed in the opposite direction.
To build in reverse time is an act of remembrance. Assembly does not follow progression but ascent, moving from the multiple toward the One. Each element added is not advancement but recollection, a step back toward the primordial vision encoded in the prototype. Deconstruction follows the opposite path, not as destruction but as sacred dispersion. What was gathered is released. The vision is sent back into the world, dispersed like a seed, completing the cycle.

12. Then place them out of sight between two black sycamore boards.
Once the cycle is complete, the images are withdrawn from view. The black sycamore boards form a threshold, a seal, a funerary yet protective enclosure. The work is not erased but hidden, returned to darkness and silence. Concealment preserves potency. What has been seen no longer belongs to the eye, but to memory, awaiting a future reactivation.
