‘Elementalism is…’
|
An
Artist’s Statement
|
- |
Elementalism
is the Formal and Analytical conception, of
a
Geometric Composition in an aesthetic of Pure Shape. |
- |
Elementalism
investigates Shape as the fundamental component of Form
in an understanding of perception in an aesthetic of Pure Form. |
- |
Elementalism
is the derivation of Form as a percept of some possible
aesthetic of Pure Shape. |
- |
The
concept of Shape is Elemental to Form. |
- |
The End
of Elementalism is to Present and understand a Geometric Aesthetic of Pure
Shape. To show that Beauty is a judgement of Elegance and that Elegance is an
attribute of Form - being itself derivable as a percept of an Aesthetic of
Pure Shape and hence Proposing An
Aesthetic of Pure form. |

The last part of the presentation is ‘New
British OP’ - a list of those artist that have influenced me and whom I
love. I Hold these people as the foundations of my sensibility in Art. This
is my Homage to influence. Isaac Newton once said, that he ‘saw so far
now because he stood on the shoulders of giants’. |
We, Artists of Late, are so privileged. |
