INFINITY MATRIX

Infinity Matrix (2018 - Present) are vast abstractions of nature, space, time and the cosmic realm referred to in Chinese Daoist philosophy as the Dao. They draw together modern abstraction with Chinese calligraphic strokes to create immersive spaces in which to mind wander within.

While traditional Chinese paintings commonly showed vast ethereal mountainous landscapes, these paintings lean away from form and deeper into formlessness. Rather than treating nature as object this work seeks an expression of the energy- attempting to make visible the invisible Dao.

An Infinity Matrix is formed through an automative repetition of 5 hand painted calligraphic strokes. This rhythmic mark marking is approached as a form concentrated meditation, a technique influenced by Chinese Chan (Zen) Buddhist painting philosophy.

This ongoing body of work acts as a form of connection between artist, audience and the metaphysical realm. They celebrate the power of art and its capacity to enhance human experience and consciousness.
