'HYPERSPHERIC PENUMBRA'(Dyptch:Left Panel)
My work explores the concept of the fourth dimension and how its shadows may be represented in both three dimensions (constructions) and two dimensions (paintings & prints).
Mostly abstract and geometric in nature, my work seeks to capture four-dimensional space through the use of contrasting colours, light, tessellation and optical effects.
You cannot see the fourth dimension directly and its sheer existence is a matter for conjecture.
However, it is a firmly established mathematical and scientific concept with a long history that has influenced many other artists.
Although the fourth dimension cannot be perceived directly, it is possible to envisage and model the shadows which four-dimensional objects would project into and onto three-dimensional space, which can then be rendered as constructions or images.
