Grid Related Minimalism

interesting thought.

my digital fotografy/imaging = interest in grid alignment of parts… align all straight lines to be parallel to sides and top;  eliminate all extraneous elements = a grid related minimalism; this minimalism equates to a kind of isolationalism (being alone or wanting to be alone in what ever environment presented); the “aloneness” could = a form of fear = or a desire to escape from “whatever”; to disappear; as an artist (me) to step outside of the immediate experience, like a ghost mabe, and simply observe the “action”; be a voyeur.  Relating all of ths to current culture, I exist as an outsider not willing to interact locally.  This keeps me and my mind free to explore all aspects of a given cultural/political/environmental interest; or ignore it and the work becomes a fantasy which may or may not combine the past, present, and the future {however one wants to define “future”.  ….social commentary both personal and publically defined.

digital imaging:  non-fotografy related = all over the map with regard to image structure; from hyper realism to completely non-objective structure.  Also added to digital imaging = combination of fotography, found digital images from all possible sources, abstractions of all definitions, plus—— to be continued.
