Artist Statement:
These images emerge from the
accidental interplay of light
and colour. They present a
simple surface, an aesthetic
arrangement of hue and shade.
Below this surface are layers
of sensation: details of
colour and pattern, perfection
of forms.
The basis of each image is a
fractal, a mathematical
construction seeded by a
random number. Fractal shapes
resemble forms found in
nature, such as leaves, trees
and coastlines. Using
fractal-based software, I
layer multiple patterns,
creating soft washes or
breaking surfaces into an
explosion of pixels that make
up their own universe.
Pushing the computer’s
capabilities as a painting
medium, I arrive at random
images that elicit a human
resonance. The machine is the
interface by which to
transcend intellect and
intention – an expression of
the Daoist wuwei (non-action)
– and out of the infinite
possibilities proffered, to
stop at a moment of grace, one
of infinite moments.
“In youth, not knowing the
taste of sorrow, in my verses
I strove to speak of sorrow,”
wrote the poet Xin Qiji

about the taste of sorrow, I
can only say: the weather is
cool, it’s a fine autumn.”
These images are about cool
