Description

signed and dated lower right
titled lower left

description from direct communication with the artist:
“Linear fields address the attraction and repulsion of opposites – their similarity and their difference are presented simultaneously as “West-East” or “Heaven and Earth”. The form fields simultaneously join and separate. creating a formal dynamic tension The algorithms for this series date from 1987 but only a few were made at that time. This year 2000 version was created with the same algorithm that was used in 1987.”
