Singularity – 23-12-21
An Oil Version Finally
After my initial graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism (Singularity) – 01-06-17’ I also made a pastel Roundism (Singularity) – 05-06-17. Especially the first I like because it surpassed my initial expectations. Strange how this one never got picked up by my followers or collectors. Perhaps someone will one day. What I mean to say is this: all the things I try to say through my roundism style is right inside. Basically it combines a formalistic point of view on artistic nudity with a deeper meaning or narrative. The latter is about the principles of singularity. Below I will explain more. By the way, this motif is a rare example of three different ways of rendering: in graphite pencil, pastel and oil. Normally pick one or two for a single motif.
Singularity
Singularity is the physical principle of a point in spacetime that cannot be measured. Its density, smallness or gravitational quality seems, touches or is infinity. This is mindboggling for all of us living in spacetime. Everything bound by it has a beginning or an end and can be measured. As explained in previous art statements I am quite fascinated by infinity. It is not even something I can touch during meditation. That is because its essence is not ‘some thing’, let alone that there is an essence. Perhaps absence is a better description, although that word also is something.
How to Depict Infinity
For quite some time now I have been breaking my head over this principle, until some years ago. Suddenly I had some kind of epiphany I had to incorporate it in my works. My task is to unreveal what is hidden for others. I became fascinated with endless sequences of irrational numbers. Obviously the greatest mack of all is the Golden Ratio. My personal contribution to the depiction of this principle I consider to introduce a curve approaching a straight line but never touching it. An infinite small point simply is too futile to draw or paint.
