Colour Poems
 
From the artists notebook

Through these works I am trying to surpass my own limitations – words can be used as a sign of direction but never become the actual walk – the experience of composed interrelated colour-forms can only be a state of mind – colour as only colour bores me but not what is possible through the medium, namely a psychic experience of that which is from the other sides – at all times thee is an active balance between a and b, but only because through a particular pure colour-relationship each depends entirely on the life of the other – light is form in the highest sense – form is arrived at through colour – colour-form occupies time or rather it can be composed to contain time: this gives one a sense of space-time through vision which can be constructed and enlarged upon: moulded to suit the artist’s need of expression – colour-poems, to be looked at and experienced as poems read to one in a language perhaps still not known – as contra-colour-forms with energies in opposites are composed with the idea of continuous adding until the total composition has been explored and experienced as a progressive row of psychic impacts through vision, creating new views through the artist’s sinsight and self-acknowledgment – so is the composition infinitely ready to offer a deeper search in aesthetics through the pure and concrete use of contra-colour-forms – it is only possible to measure creative energies in relation to one’s depth of sensitivity.
