Falling Upwards, is another example of a work that demands a lot of trial and error. At some point these works enter a deeply disorienting state. Once I approximate the colour palette and tones of the source image, the matrix of circles and the image lock into relation with one another as if they had always lived together in this manner. I am surprised by the effect. I don’t control the work so much as carry along a process until the painting announces itself.
As Foucault describes in the Order of Things, we seem to accept that beneath it all, there exists an order.

I vote for circles and ellipses over squares and rectangles.
