ARTIST’S STATEMENT: What are we beyond language? The translation of emotions into thoughts is messy, and a lot of it hard to bring into the light of consciousness, so the idea is that we might benefit from a non-verbal language of seeing and experiencing our emotions as a web of attractive and repulsive forces… to experience them in a less dualistic, ego-controlled way, to help our healing…
The images are generated with equations used in the study of dynamical systems, where the position of a point evolves by being fed back into the equations to calculate subsequent positions, creating an orbital point cloud that gives us feedback on the behaviour of the system. The patterns can range from very simple orbits to galaxies to complex wave formations.Special thanks to Nicolas Desprez who wrote the Chaoscope programme the images were generated with.
