LAYERED PLANAR GEOMETRY AND ITS 
THREE-DIMENSIONAL OCCURRENCE IN SPACE
 
 

The knowledge of geometry has been the fundamental basis of art forms throughout history. The application of geometry pervades and forms the visual world we move through; it allows us to remember and reconstruct formations and gives artist the freedom of scale and combination of different dimensions. My own work deals with hidden images: layers of planar surfaces visible from a certain angle, which change according to distance and personal interaction. Three planar surfaces, consisting of canvas and screen, are parallax or completely unrelated in their geometric design. The surfaces, as concrete as they are alone, together convey images with constantly changing focus and appearance. Once knows what is physically present but captures, and then loses the optical image in an oscillating phenomenon.
