The veil is one, it divides into two, it occupies the place of a third, and offers the observer the position of a fourth. But is the veil one? Does it partition in two, since it generates relations as much as it divides? Not taking up much space, it surely does not occupy a place, be it a “third.” And does it allow for an observer’s “fourth” position, or any position at all?
