I dedicated this painting to Benoit Mandelbrot, a French mathematician for his work in fractal geometry and chaos theory. Here, ambiguous shapes such as clouds are broken down into infinitely smaller geometric shapes.
About the Artist
Stephen Austin is a Colorado-based painter who creates intricate geometric abstractions that mimic the flow of energy throughout the universe. He observes that regardless of scale, whether inside a teacup or across the solar system, patterns of motion repeat themselves. His paintings reconstruct natural forces that connect micro- and macrocosms, such as traveling light, diffusing particles, and dissipating energy. “My art is straightforward in that it visually represents whatever the title may be. The final image depicts highly geometric analysis and reconstruction of the subject,” says the artist. The forms are restless and dynamic; they appear to twist and roll through space. Stephen works predominantly with vertically-oriented canvases to evoke the upward, weightless movement of clouds. To create his paintings, he begins by compiling several rapidly-drawn gestural sketches. Then, he reworks these sketches with close analysis to build the final composition. His work has been featured in the New York Times Sunday Magazine and he has had numerous solo shows in Colorado.
