South American Terraces I & II

Remember the South American terrace paintings I mentioned in my September 2 blog post?
In the pictures above they have
been ‘abstracted’ by reducing the number and complexity of shapes in their
composition. Reducing the complexity beyond the level of recognizability
produces a non-representational design.
I hope to show that this design
can evoke a quite different reality, especially when considered as a haiga,
accompanied by a poem such as this enigmatic little computer-generated haiku:
Less
is more for all
Superconductivity
Now
accelerate
This is where the ‘quantum leap’ I defined at the end of my September
23 post comes in… How far do you need to go beyond ‘recognizable’ to make that
leap? Further than South American
Terraces II, I suspect.
Plan B will continue...
