about
This current body of paintings is of very curious landscapes and interiors. Sometimes I feel like a flâneur of my own mind. I wander through it, detached, recording what I see. My images, mostly referenced from Google, feel like they were created by someone else, someone who was bored and confused so he neurotically filled up every inch of open space, leaving nowhere for the eye to rest, using all the colors and materials he had around him. In so doing he was able to convert his boredom and confusion into imagination: creating dizzying spaces and stormy landscapes. To quote Gaston Bachelard, I feel like an “architect of an oneiric house.” The paintings can be at the same time overcrowded but beautiful, humorous and lonely. Like life, they are mysteriously many contradictory things at once. I am interested in showing how the absurdity and confusion of life can actually be beautiful, humorous and enjoyable.
As you may see in the blog, currently I am working on adding actual physical technology to my work. I am doing this using an Arduino microprocessor and the Processing language. I also do a little web design.
