     Perception involving not only reality but a voyage through dimensions, a circumnavigation of your innermost thoughts and feelings, stripping it away all to be seen; a glorious public voyeurism. It does requires submission to intellectual rape. Physical properties play only a secondary role. Spiritual value manifests itself, each work created cleanses and rejuvenates. Objectivity is to communicate, to formulate a bridge between thought  and action. Definition is not the object, motivation is subliminal and a must. Without visualizing the total image, the perception already executed. Future thoughts have been collected and rearranged to benefit the participant. Responsibility to the past, present and future is an integral part, as fields other than art (mathematic, physics, architecture, etc...). Also, requires an extended knowledge of philosophy, ability to communicate and transcribe: poetry, music and thought to a visual display. 

   Multinational background, combining philosophy, abstract geometry, mathematics and physics are a major element of my works. The depth of human emotion transformed to a visual experience from the overpowering of fractals / quarks / tectonic syntaxes and symbols the vast field of images not only as a visual stimulus but a spiritual awakening. Observing through the years, its results do indicate a tremendous verbal and visual response and participatory reaction.

   Today’s with high-tech encroaching every facets of our life, it would be foolish not to take advantage and benefits of the use of computers as a new ‘media’ to creativity. With the proliferation and development of the personal computers, creativity opens its doors to untold dimension and capability. It is not limited to static art, animation, three-D, multi-dimensional, figurative and abstract all are integrated, the only difference from art as we know it is the tool which we use to create/interpret our input. The potential is enormous in ‘techno-creativity”  The fastest growing field on computer. There are also some beneficial aspects for artists, it is environmentally friendly, less waste and much healthier.
