| Description: |
The emphatically factual experience of
size and perception in this work,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
duty, responsibility, discipline and work...
In Shaker æsthetics, the visual phenomena of the objective world are, in themselves, empty: the only worthy thing is feeling, as such. The artist employs traditional proportions to contain the colours, which thus subsist in a world of their own making. The layers of approaching curves are intertwined in a homage to misery. ``The dialogue created by the comination of textures, colours, and dimensions evokes nature in its pure, controlled, yet fanciful expression. Sensorial expreiences and organic abstractions represent man's drive for interpreting reality and our mental processes. In a seemingly chaotic world, the artist struggles to find inner serenity and to convey it in his work. Each piece becomes a unique instance of wholeness within the labyringht of life.'' [describing Alex Garcin, Untitled 2004] |
