Final Blurb: 20.12.10

Name: "Opus Etherea"

Blurb:

“An abstract interpretation of flow visualization and specular reflection, which seeks to illuminate hidden natural phenomena that exist all around us.

'Unseen' mathematical wonders and physics of nature; the creation of an aura of ephemeral light, the formation of furls and vortex's in air on a predetermined atmospheric journey, as it 'migrates' or 'infuses' within the dimensions of our natural space, as it progresses on an infinite passage through time.

Within the quiet movement of a breath, a gentle motion or gesture, there exists a hidden complexity in the universally shared perception of simplicity or 'nothingness' observed in air, water and atmosphere – and yet, this is how all life is supported and sustained. How our slightest or fleeting movements impact on a fragile world, and how our existence is based on the precision and perfection of the constant interchange of substance and matter, such as the intricate process of the oxygenation of our blood through our lungs and heart. These apparently simple, yet incomprehensibly complex natural occurrences are potentially breathtakingly beautiful. The work intends to transcend preconceived perceptions of time and space and convey the immense hidden true significance and importance that belies the enigma of the forces of life itself.”

Ephemeral: 20.12.10

Ephemeral things (from Greek εφήμερος - ephemeros, literally "lasting only one day"[1]) are transitory, existing only briefly. Typically the term is used to describe objects found in nature, although it can describe a wide range of things.
