Rootless

Inspired by Mondriaan I want to create abstract images derived from nature. Since birth we learn to observe what is called reality. We recognize the world around us by shades of light and dark, revealing shape, texture, depth. By manipulating light and dark we leave this ‘truth’ behind and we enter a new, otherwise hidden, private world. This series ‘Rootless’ presents images where, each time, the camera was pointed towards tree bark. The viewer, however, is confronted with the emotions of his own imagination.
