The red plane is not only an a priori datum, it is a state of indetermination and virtuality. What Morellet proposes is not the correction of that state of indetermination but its visualization: what is contradictory in terms of formal logic is not necessarily so in visual perception. He divides the field into squares by means of blue lines, but, since the purpose is not to determine the indetermination but to visualize it, the luminous and chromatic energy of the background is allowed to displace the blue lines, moving them closer together or further apart, so that they can visually express the invisible rhythm of the tension and expansions occurring within the strongly colored zone.
