Today’s political discord, pandemic, economic inequalities, and geopolitical strife are challenging the emotions of every individual. Harmony and truth are harder or more difficult to experience. The Mediations series provides an oasis from these challenges by evoking a feeling of stability, truth, and harmony through contemplation. Geometric shapes and color bring harmony and connection among and within humans. Through geometry — a cube, sphere, cone, or hedron — the foundation of the universe is revealed. Often referred to as “sacred geometry” it brings together a system of spatial relationships and proportions that are the core of the natural order.
When combined with primary colors — red, blue, yellow, and green — geometric shapes create an aesthetic tension but also reconciliation. These still life portraits form a harmony of color, shapes, as well as contrasts signifying the dynamic forces of balance and cognitive calm. This tension of shapes and colors is further revealed by placing them in “the void” of darkness thereby releasing the negative space, or space between them, enhancing the composition and accentuating the innate beauty of nature’s truth.
