ARTIST STATEMENT
This work is a storyboard that describes a development in two
stages. In step one I build a Meta-Phorm. A Meta-Phorm (meta +
metaphor + form) is intended to be the visual appearance of an abstract
creative proposition by setting geometrical forms into a game
relationship that emulates a cybernetics model (a situation where
various structures or systems are interconnected by input, output,
and feedback events).
I consider all the visual elements that participate in the build-up from
the fine-art point of view. The scripts, graphs, and formulas in the left
side alongside the 12 profiles at the bottom of the page, describe
geometrical events of the developments in the central image and
provide an environment for it. Any included symbol fulfills two meanings:
the mathematical sequence and as a visual sign in the fine-art
composition. Therefore, not all the mathematical developments are
detailed, and they are inserted only when considered appropriate
from the final composition’s point of view. I use conventional and/or
personal mathematical symbols.

In stage two, the Meta-Phorm created in stage one is handed over
to the mathematical operations buried deep in the multiple features
of the software/hardware. They analyze, recognize, and extract
electronic/mathematical attributes that the image is reduced to and
reorganize, shift, and transform them. Connected as a mathematical
continuum of numbers and formulas, the colors, their shape, and
the surfaces they occupy are handled simultaneously and therefore
make up a new unified meta-composition, which could not be
invented otherwise.
TECHNICAl STATEMENT
By its very nature, my concept originates, exists and unfolds in the
realm of abstract thinking. The computer is required if the work is
to become visually explicit and reach its full potential. Everything
needed to accomplish this goal is provided by commercially available
technologies, such as the Adobe Professional Design Suite software.
They provide filters and effects that I use in overlapping and recurrent
successions to serve the concept of the piece.
