Archetype Drawings
(2001)

In these series of works, I worked to push my exploration of geometric patterning and color relationships into the third and fourth dimensions, while still employing a two-dimensional surface. These drawings are an amalgamation of a wide variety of ideas informed by sacred geometry, alchemy, the Platonic solids, R. Buckminster Fuller’s geodesic domes, Albrecht Dürer’s engraving Melancholia, and Sol Lewitt’s Sentences on Conceptual Art — specifically, “1. Conceptual Artists are mystics rather than rationalists. They leap to conclusions that logic cannot reach.”.
