Pyramidal shapes offered another interesting insight into the notion of vitual space – if viewd from the inside the structures look irresistibly like perspective drawing, with the point being the horizon.
This suggested to me a space that could reside beyond that horizon… and was a tool I used to create a few variation on “spatial” work.
I am fascinated by geometric abstract forms that act as all encompassing statements. The problem however lies in that these are often utopian fictions that deny reality as much as they try to make sense of it. The problem, I believe, is one of balance. The key is to find a dialogue between order and chaos, without falling into utopian fallacy. We need order – but we also need the anarchic. A touch of imperfection makes a transient thing of purity and genius. It is this that I constantly search for.
