CHAOTISM appreciates and acknowledges the beauty of duality which reflects in all that surrounds us. The infinite Cycles, opposing flow of order & chaos, battling forces establishing perfect balance. Constant action - reaction between these two forces are the key to creation. CHAOTISM strives to provoke and direct, whilst acknowledging and respecting this omnipresent force. These forces can not rule purely by them selves. They are in need of each others influence to stay in motion. As a creator practising CHAOTISM one must respect these cycles. Appreciate the process for what is, evolving, infinite, endless... Do not get attached to what is ahead or in the past. Focus on where you are and observe where creation takes you. Stay open to new options, new directions every step of the way. Avoid attachment to a premeditated outcome.
Lt0418 is the only series of work which was a collaboration between Belgium and Cambodia, this series was commenced as a group chaotism demonstration at an event in Ghent. After this initial session the surface was divided in three pieces to allow transportation to the studio in Otres, where it underwent multiple collaborative sessions at art laboratory.
Most of my work has no defined angle and can be viewed 360º as during the creation process the work is approached from different angles. Some works do define themselves in the last stages, as the final details usually claim the focal point, the last angle I’ve approached the work from often becomes the proffered angle for later observation. This piece however kept changing angle even in the last stage of the work process, this is partly due to size, a smaller work allows to create on horizontal surface easy to rotate continuously.
