Description
Of all the genres of art I have done or still do, working with geometric shapes has an inherent appeal. I think this is because as children, learning about shapes is one of the ways we are taught to perceive, order and name the world around us. I also think some prototypical mystery emerges in the mere perception and processing of shape recognition. Playing with the toy we called Color-Forms was extraordinarilly exciting for me, and brought with it my first apprehension of being in love with color. Visual joy for its own sake, once cultivated, becomes a lifelong companion and source of inspiration and solace. And I remember that joy to this day!
This geometric abstract background in variations of color has a strong spatial and optical appeal. I envision this print in a young child's room, to teach the joy of color and the elegance of geometric form. And what child doesn't love vibrant color and interesting shapes?
