Selected works from 2005
2005 is an important marker for human development in many fields but particularly for art. The cause for excitement is fueled in part by the 100 anniversary of Albert Einstein's special relativity and the contributions by Hermann Minkowski, Ammy Noether and many others to this milestone. Their combined work ushered the fundamental transformation of our conception of the universe and the further understanding of the laws that mediate the process of existence.
The fundamental change was that our static universe of old was integrated into an expanding and dynamic universe, a four dimensional object or space-time. these concepts are complex but their underlying symmetry is accessible when we look for it and is wonderfully simple once we find their expression in the the natural world.
For art, the last century was was a period of frenetic expansion towards the attainment of complete liberation of the art object to the outer reaches of conceptual space, somewhat similar to the frenetic expansion of the nuclear objective to liberate the atom.
Once again the laws of nature come to bear in the final analysis, as for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Art and humanity in the twenty first century will have to deal with the fall-out, benefit and consequences of these liberating campaigns.
The following works are about a new synthesis concerning human consciousness operating at a four dimensional level, that is to say that ideas no longer need to be static fixtures in our minds but like the expanding dynamic universe, ideas can also be objects in motion flowing in space-time and reality an ever changing but accessible part of the human experience.
