Perspective is (Almost) Everything

This year the prevailing theme in my work is perspective. In fact, perspective and experimentation have always been the common thread that holds the fabric of my life together.

Whether it’s my neo-cubist paintings, generative art, motion paintings, conceptual sculptures, or exploration of generative AI and art, I have been exploring perspective.

I’m noticing that even when I break the rules of depth and color combining, the work shows that our brains are always looking for and finding depth and dimension— near and far. It’s powerful to sit with. We are meaning making entities. Our biases wire our brain to see what we expect or what we’re looking for. Change what your looking for and you are sure to find it.

Right now I am looking for hidden dimensions. Through this exploration, I’ve been drawn to hyperbolic geometry and structures in 2D or 3D space that represent higher dimensions— Exploring both inner space and outer space as higher dimension. It’s fun and it stretches my mind and vision.

Some of my most recent experiments are with code on OpenProcessing.org. I am particularly in love with this one https://openprocessing.org/sketch/2653427 . You can refresh the sketch to see different variations.

You can see my other sketches and the many failed experiments on my Open Processing profile. I will write more about this obsession and perspective as the year unfolds. I also plan on continuing the exploration via neo-cubist paintings which I will share on instagram and bluesky.

Until then, if you see something, say something. ;) Art is a collaborative process and when you see something in my work, I love to hear about it. Something new is created each time someone new looks at a piece and brings themselves to the art. I love knowing how something made you feel or what you saw or what it made you think of. There is always more in art that the artists is never aware of until the viewer reveals it to them.

Your in co-creation,
