Scientific processes have always interested me and the desire to unite them with other disciplines like poetry, philosophy and psychology has always been great. I seek expressions for unity between material and immaterial, between the defined and undefined, existent and non-existent
The geometric forms have been in focus the last years. Fibonaccis calculations has been a great source of inspiration as well as Heisenbergs uncertainity relation. I ask myself if the inner energy and mental states tends to accumulate in the same way?
My latest project is a study in energy and geometry where I work intuitionally but with a clear idea. I focus on the calculations of Fibonacci and do my own interpretations for a new language within the forms.
