Chaos Theory No.1: Playground Painting

STATEMENT: In this series, I explore Chaos as system—giving rise and collapse to non-linear hierarchies. This is the birthplace for symmetry — the foundation from which all natural laws spring. Here, Time and Motion are compressed by limitless geometry. We, as conscious creative beings, exist in the space at the cross-section in between, birthing the language that will give shape, pattern, reason to these abstract tales of infinity. PROCESS: My process for this series is focused on unfolding the most myopic expression of experience— that which is layered with dynamic impulse and emotion and has yet to reveal any sense of hierarchy or understanding. Maybe I catch glimpses of familiarity or a potential start of a pattern, but the motivation for this process is to yield myself to connecting with the moment by acting on pure intuition of expression. This is a fight to not simultaneously judge, attempt to analyze, or insert control over the marks and colors I make. It is a window for safe exploration of color and shape through play… the game is to layer as many marks that, to me, are chaotic. POETRY: I’VE GOT THE CHAOS … But what does she become? What were her movements leading up to this moment... and what will define her next? How would you solve the equation of her next move? > So then… / What is her drive? / What makes her important?… / What makes her not so? / What value does she hold as she is right now? / What motion could reveal dormant pattern within her?
