spacecolor (1999 -)

After working for more than three decades in black and white, my new work (1999 -) the workphase spacecolor includes color.

The steady increase of complexity in my work forced me to reconsider the use of this b/w binary system in order to find a more adequate visual expression. Adding colors to my work describe spatial relationships which are not based on color theory. The colors should be seen as random elements, showing through their differentiation the complexity and spatial ambiguity essential to my work. My new work is shown as inkJet images, and also on a flat screen hanging on a wall presenting a slow motion animation, so that day after day a different image appears.

This workphase is based on the 6-dimensional hypercube
