“Reality is woven from strange, “holistic” threads that aren’t located precisely in space or time. Tug on a dangling loose end from this fabric of reality, and the whole cloth twitches, instantly, throughout all space and time.”  —Dean Radin, "Entangled Minds"

With acrylic, gouache and graphite I continue my exploration of working with an interconnected network of lines that undulate, and twist and turn, forming illusions of spatial planes that trace the movement of invisible energy. Reminiscent of underwater currents or wind patterns, lines reveal themselves either through their presence or absence. A matrix of threads either become visible through the organization of dot patterns that fill the empty space, or by the solid amorphous shapes created by subtracting those very threads. 

The drawings and paintings on paper below represent a series of studies I worked on that directly informed the final painting Interwoven shown above.
