About Me
- Alan Rose
- Sydney, NSW, Australia
- My work investigates the boundary between order and chaos. The human mind is constantly searching visual inputs for patterns and meaning. My intention is to create a moment of bewilderment, to encourage the viewer to grope for meaning, to switch to a conscious visual attention. My works use geometry, repetition and mathematical sequences, which all induce a comfortable feeling of order. But they also embody aperiodicity, movement, 3-dimensionality and lighting effects, all of which create disorder . In the end, success is guaged by how long the viewer is engaged by the work, the time spent in this conscious state.
