The story behind

EXAMPLE PRESENTATION OF NEW MASTER ARTIST

This artwork is a MRI scan of my brain. It is a ceiling piece.

Every time I see this artwork it reminds me of how relative my world is. It's fun to sit under my own brain while working: the artwork hangs from the ceiling, kind of like filtering the sunlight trought the contrasted structure of my brain.

There is a duality in this work: the nature and nurture. This duality is fun and inspiring.

1. The artwork symbolizes the current state of My World in 2007 (the nature). This reminds me that I only experience this world through my own sensations, thoughts and feelings, just like the brain is pre-programmed with standard patterns.

2. Secondly, the artwork symbolizes the future state of My World (the nurture). It tells me that I create and shape my own world, just like the brain is changeable and new structures and connections can be made.

My future plan is to make all 3 pieces (front and side too), so that I can actually stand inside my own head. See the lego-picture...

I always wanted to make 'ceiling-art'. Most artists are working on the walls, so I figured 'let's go to the ceiling', where many still have empty spaces.
