Dream your Dream

My four boxes with the title “dreampaths”, are topological networks , made with conditions of art and mathematics . You can go around them and combine the ambiguous forms anew.

You can set the boxes in a line, vertical or horizontal or in a square. You can turn the frontsites of boxes several times clockwise or against or you can change the position of the boxes; par example, the first place or the last or so on.

So you can choose between 18432 positions of the four boxes.

If you make one change daily, you can see a new picture every day for 50 years and 170 days.

The boxes of “dreampaths” have a pecularity. The background and also the four flanks are painted with MAPO-grafics. So there exist the double number of possibilities and you have for 100 years in minimum time to live 36 864 new possibilities in minimum for your visual intelligence and to decide, what will I see, to go your own way in the pictures, chosen from your character. This is a great challenge for your creative energy.

In the last years, over and over again, the theme dream is the subject in my works.

In the year 2000, the installation “songs of nightingale – between day and dream was created” . This work, be made of 24 parts of paintings, light appearances and sound were shown in many exhibitions with the support of the wildlife-conservation-society of New York.

2002 the series :” the garden of dreams “was composed in paintings and poems. Various newspapers, which have written about the exhibitions have chosen for the headline : “how the world was created in the human mind, pictures for the visual intelligence.”

2005 I have start with the series “dreampaths”, likewise pictures for the active spectator :

“You need time to choose and go to the paths from all the four sides of the topological network .

You need time to go in memory ( time personally), to decide the ambiguous forms.

You need time to combine the ambiguous forms anew, your mind gives birth to new imaginings, new meaning of the picture.” So every new vision is composed.

I have called my interdisciplinary works, the mixture of art, mathematics, the science of the human brain, & science of cognition : MAPO-mathematical poetry.
