SOLOs

The name SOLO in this context means an image which is complete by itself, and it is not part of a set of connecting images, either as a key or an excerpt.

Most of these images are created from scratch or nothing except to include the Golden rule and Parallel/Expansionist Color© as much as possible. Each line, curve, form, blend, color, light, is designed to complement the expansionist sphere, a fluid marriage of the vertical with the horizontal circle. Letting the thought process move freely within the sphere is a priority. The visual sensory information of these connecting images aims at reducing the loss of cerebral energy in order to stimulate exploration as explained in the “Mass in B minor” of Bach or the late quartets of Beethoven, etc.

The color images are classified parallel because each element uses only one family of colors. The parallel principle is sometimes used in the organization of the forms/textures of black & white and color images. These elements are complementary in order to form unity. The colors of the virtual images are not the same as the originals because the virtual technology mixes black with the colors. No black was used in the originals and several use pure color at a level as high as 95%.

This virtual presentation is used for explanations, and it is similar to looking at an image from the outside instead of within. It does not duplicate the original anti time experience of several of the originals. These images of high level of visual communication are part of this web site to support the game Vitockey, conceived from the same universal principles.

These images are all handmade except for several of the black & white drawings beginning in the early 1980s. Considering the difficulty in achieving the style of these images (curve, nuances, light, etc) it was necessary to make the use of both hands equally (become ambidextrous).

Techniques used:

Drawing; charcoal, graphite, dry pastel (to have mastered this technique to a very high level), oil pastel, lead (including a new technique), colored pencils…

Engraving; Serigraphy, lithography, viscosity etching.

Painting; gouache, water, acrylic, alkyd, oil…

Sculpture; wood, aluminum casting. 

Virtual; 2 D and some 3D.

Their format varies between 10 X 10 cm in height and 155 X 200 cm in length. In this presentation between 10 X 980 pixels in height and 1000 X 14000 in width (right to left, vertical or horizontal and vice versa). Depending on their format, the majority must be viewed with reduced light. Please view exhibitions.

P.S The great majority of these images have never been seen in public, partly because of their high level of visual communication (conservation of cerebral  energy in order to stimulate exploration) and the difficulty of collaboration with the leaders of visual sensory information.

^{More than 100,000 hours of research, mainly in solitude, brought me to the following conclusion:}

^{Sensory information will play a key role toward global unification.}
