The images presented are part of a larger project and are
intended to be printed on 135 x 90 cm canvas.
The photos used are taken in a laboratory
where with models I recreate galaxies, seas, forests, creeks.
The importance is not in the technique manipulation but is
what is photographed.
My goal is for them to be abstract images that
express energy and movement, the changing universe. But
that they also maintain a relationship with the romantic
European landscapes of the 19th century and the subtle
landscapes and oriental drawings
Artist Statement

starry night, cosmic cataclysms, imagined planets, quantum

Jong Seon, J. M. W. Turner, Caspar David Friedrich, Oriental art

PHILOSOPHY.
My work is inspired by the oriental philosophy of the TAO in the
sense that everything flows in an eternal change and in the
certainty of the absolute and mutable unity in which things exist.
In my works I try to reflect immediate changes such as the flow of
a stream or the wind through the branches, but also what has
happened -is happening- millions of years ago.
One side rebellious. Another serene. Dis-
arm, / arm / disarm… Acracy that
folds to the number, that holds onto
the mine’s labyrinth against the smoothness
of the plated metal. Liberty and form:
persuasive / dissuasive… resolute in
a stellar instant (star / tail).
Knot / mesh / frames / carpet / air,
air… Paciel. (How many dimensions
fit in the dream?). Turbulence. As-
cendit.
