From the Cocteau's movie; an analogy could be possible for the treatment of 2 surfaces from Mies Van Der Rohe: the lake in the pavillion and the glass panels in the National Gallery.
Words and signs can never fully summon forth what they mean, but can only be defined through appeal to additional words, from which they differ. Thus meaning is forever "deferred" or postponed through an endless chain of signifiers. [ wikipedia on the concept of "differance" ]
