We create a never-ending revolving mathematical formula as we move about. Weaving in and out moving around the urban streets of New York City, passing one another as if synchronized by some underlying source.
My paintings grew out of my every day observation of pedestrians in patterns in New York and the repeated formations they seem to create. In dense areas where there appears chaos, there is also order within creating constant shapes be it in color or composition. Within the intricate symbols of the human experience there is design. There is a system that our innate spirits know from deep within that forms repetitive clusters in varied densities of a given space. Our daily lives are directed by numerical codes that underlie how we think and move. We cluster like the stars, branches and cells under a microscope.
In our physical form we walk, sit and congregate in patterns. In dense areas where there appears chaos, there is also order within creating constant shapes be it in color or composition. Thus, composition and disparate colors are placed strategically in a variation of geometric and organic shapes creating movement in my series of work. By my application of this technique, my paintings emanate a sense of chaos yet order within the chaos.
My goal is to contribute to the world and the environment by investigating our human desire to create such systems by the use of abstract form highlighting vibrant colors through texture, balance and movement.
