--next--> drawings in the 70s first drawings from software. randomly tiled geometry à la anni albers in a series of eight pieces, only one still existent. red and black inks from felt pen. in the 70s, creation of line works mediated on a small plotter. programs composed in rocky mountains basic direct calculations of an early small hewlett-packard lab computer. this produces instructions that direct the plotter to draw the proper geometry. one program, one drawing; in retrospect this was slow and small but effective. influence: bauhaus art, benoit mandelbrot's self-similarity papers.
vent noir II (1989)
pen and china ink, 9x9 on 15x12in. strathmore
my painting is visible images which conceal nothing.. they evoke mystery and indeed when one sees one of my pictures, one asks oneself this simple question: what does that mean? it does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it is unknowable. |
