"For me abstraction is real, probably more real than nature. I'll go further and say that abstraction is nearer my heart. I prefer to see with my eyes closed."
-- Joseph Albers
This picture is abstract because there is a wide variety of shapes and there is a bit of colour. I also like the fact that no matter how long you stare at the picture you can't figure out what it actually is.
Everything put together sooner or later falls apart. I start with the fallen apart and re-create or assemble when a visual harmony presents itself. |
In the picture above I can see many lines and shapes , they look like they have been cut out and stuck on the pages and they give off a ocean beach theme.
The title constructed landscape gives me the idea that these shapes have been put in specific places for example cutting and sticking. I think that they might be in different locations because of the different textures of each piece. |
A window covered in raindrops interests me more that a photograph of a famous person.
