New Histories

The idea for this series was conceived while viewing pieces from the Elisabeth Dean Collection,La Belle Epoque, at the Fresno Art Museum, which includes over 1000 pieces of French graphic art from the 1880’s to the 1900’s. I thought it would be interesting to create new works based upon the antique prints using contemporary technology. I combined images from La Belle Epoque with historic pieces from my own collection of art source material, which includes antique books, prints, postcards, and photographs. Each piece in the New Histories series is an artifact of my own exploration, study, and reaction to current scientific concepts and theories about: discrete space, lattice theory, Planck scales, relativity, spacetime, string theory, the causal structure of the universe, the texture of reality, etc. |
