Inner Narrative
The painting is a visual representation of statistical arrangements and random processes, combining precisely organized order with an element of variability and randomness, reflecting the artist's creative philosophy.
The key to interpreting the work
Interpretation should consider the use of mathematical and random mechanisms and the deliberate abandonment of artist expression in favor of a rational, controlled creative process.Auction information
