Artist Statement


SYMPHONIC SPACE

The next logical development from plastic space, spatial illusion, multiple vanishing point and shifting focus, is 'symphonic space' - non-objective space which relies upon and transcends the former pictorial language by obeying basic tenets of musical orchestral composition, visually.

It is the consummate 'visual language' - one which goes beyond style and also necessarily the artist's personal vision.

This space places great demands on the viewer, forcing that he/she drop the normal conditioned image reality, and shift into complete freedom of thought, ending the mind's convergence of marks which make up accepted/consensus views of the world.

The works challenge the 'ego/self' - the patterns of the autonomous self - to destruct in order to see the work as it is, and not as thought thinks it should be according to the safety of personal memory.

All the works are signed and dated verso.
