Figures series

Figures/Gestalten, a series of ‘portraits’. The Figures are ‘portraits’ with images depicted from outside which create and form the innerworld. By rendering man as a Figure ‘filled in’ with images depicted from their surroundings, ‘portraits’ appear in which the essential and personal characteristics are reduced to expression and outward characteristics like a silhouette or shadow. A more complete image from identity can be seen from the images with which they are ‘filled’. These images come from the figure’s surroundings, images such as landscapes, still-lifes, and cityscapes; the images from the outer world reflecting the innerworld, the identity.
