INCOMPRESSIBLE FLOW
In response to COVID-19, why not share in the progress of series in development. Each week there will be a new artwork introduced to the Spring 2020 series, Incompressible Flow.
The term “current” defines natural phenomena is both broad and poignant. Air currents, electrical currents and oceanic current are examples of general system of actions, reactions and counteractions put into perpetual motion. A definition of “current” is know “as a quantity representing the rate of flow”. Yet, when we say “currently” the meaning becomes a measure of our own existence, right here – now.
Scattering Errors
Introducing Spring 2020 Series.The studio has been an absolute creative powerhouse the last 3 months – and still going. It feels amazing to be exploring, experimenting and seeing how the series is coming together as a larger body of work. These light based artworks fill the gap between painting and emulsion based photography. The central theme […]
Squeezability Cipher
Here’s the 2nd piece from my Spring 2020 series, Incompressible Flow. The central idea for this series is resiliency. Thinking about the flow of movement, it can be diverted, but not compressed or compromised in nature. The title for this piece is Squeezability Cipher. Like squeezing a water balloon, the contents appropriately only flow around. […]
Mixing with the current or muddying the waters
Here’s the 3rd new artwork release from my Spring 2020 series, Incompressible Flow. The inspiration for this work, Turbidity Current originates as fast-moving currents that are intermixing with a fury of inky saturation. With this new body of work, I’m reflecting on the movements and currents that surround us, in part as an abstraction to […]
Peripheral Contingency
This is Peripheral Contingency, my next introduction to the new Spring 2020 series. A vast majority of what I do is looking at the behaviors of natural forces; pressures of geological formations, influence of gravity and flow of currents. I think in systems, in networks that echo the force of nature, not necessary mimic […]
Surreptitious Aggregation
In January, as initiated my spring 2020 series, I had no idea that we were headed into a global crisis of health, heart and mind. I knew I wanted to make a series of abstract works that thematically worked with two concepts. First, Incompressible, as a state of defiant resistance to increasing pressure. Second, Flow as […]
Antecedent Orchestration
Antecedent Orchestration is the next new introduction to the Spring 2020 series.
Tangential Grasps
Tangential Grasps is the next new introduction to the Spring 2020 series. Emerging at all edges are flowing tube-like shapes of light travel out of darkness into a cool-white collective. Within the center core only hints the flowing movements turbulently swirling into a primordial soup of change and chance.
Stasis Dissipation (Triptych)
Stasis Dissipation is the next new introduction to the Spring 2020 series. Stasis Dissipation, Panel 1 of 3, 30 x 30 inches (each panel), light on photo paper, ©2020 Stasis Dissipation, Panel 2 of 3, 30 x 30 inches (each panel), light on photo paper, ©2020 Stasis Dissipation, Panel 3 of 3, 30 x 30 […]
Gradient Advantage
This next artwork is titled Gradient Advantage, making reference to of a term used for describing geological formations in relation to water flows. Continuing the theme of Incompressible flow, this piece volleys the question, could there ever be a favorable position of advantage in a system of perpetual motion? Gradient Advantage, 48 x 48 inches, […]
