Description
Artist Statement:
I consider each coloured dot to be like a person. You and me and everyone. Together we all make up that image shown. You will notice that in my work all the dots are spread out evenly in a grid. The grid stands for me as for rigour and rules of society. I could have easily made squares instead of dots, but squares are not free, squares can’t roll, but dots are free and can roll. Personally I don’t want needless rules, I want freedom. However, some basic rules are needed, exemplified with this grid, which shows that together even though we are free (dot can roll), we can create an image if we follow basic rules. So creating these works besides being tedious, I am constantly fighting the rules to be met (the grid) because without the grid, I don’t get the image. From close by, dot by dot, it doesn’t tell you much, however from a distance, the coloured dots blend together and makes you see something totally different. So, together, with some rules, we create a wonderful world. I also aim for the people that see the work to be amazed that at first glance they didn’t see an image. That they have to pay just a little more attention to the basics.
