Item Description
Encounter I, 2024, acrylic, collages on canvas, 20''x 20''x 1.5''
The furors of geological forces inside the earth’s crust create new organic and geometric forms and intricate spaces. Geometrical relics of crystal symmetry emerge, weathering and fragmentation transform the rocks and minerals into new structures and mysterious landscapes; vivid colours arise from layers of oxidations and erosion.
This fragmentation and emergence of entangled spaces and structures are an inspiration.
Encounter I, 2024, acrylique, collages sur toile, 20 po x 20 po x 1,5' po
Les fureurs des forces géologiques à l’intérieur de la croûte terrestre donnent naissance à de nouvelles formes organiques et géométriques, ainsi qu’à des espaces complexes. Des vestiges géométriques de la symétrie cristalline émergent, tandis que l’altération et la fragmentation transforment les roches et les minéraux en structures inédites et en paysages mystérieux. Des couleurs vives surgissent des strates d’oxydation et d’érosion.
Cette fragmentation et l’émergence d’espaces et de structures entremêlés sont une source d’inspiration.
