The Fragmented World

New Route in the Fragmented World, 2019

A State of Being Fragmented

The series ‘the fragmented world’ mirrors the transformation of the artist in his attempt to liberate himself from as many conflicting demands of the fragmented world as possible in order to enlarge the capacity to act upon his own intuition instead.

Obviously getting rid of all the fragments pulling on us has its limitations but being aware of what is influencing us reduces the impact and gives us more room to choose our own reactions to our heart’s desire. For the artist this newly gained freedom means that during the whole creative process of a new piece of art he can make use of the full gamut of his imagination without undesirable limitations. In the course of this authentic flow the artist literally becomes his own world with the abundant fragments of his own existence.

Shredded by Fragments, 2019

In the work above ‘shredded by fragments’ the artist interprets his own perception of living inside the boundaries of the fragmented world. The fragments are metaphors for the numerous and often incompatible demands of people and circumstances we react upon.

Abstract Legs

The work ‘Abstract legs’ is a symbol of the repetitive and uniform patterns of movements as perceived by the artist or in other words, what is happening in our lives and consequently in the world as the powers that perpetuate what is going to be happening always remain unchanged.

 Is it me? Or is it something else? Am I no longer the same or is it the world around me that has changed? The work ‘Me or it’ from 2017 depicts the artist’s perception that sometimes we think that things around us are suddenly different but on closer inspection we come to the conclusion that it is us who are no longer the same, notwithstanding the nagging doubt that despite that impression it might still be the other way round.
