the images of the ‘fragment’ series are an attempt to create more or less complex, dynamic forms and catch their tension and beauty at a special moment. the idea with ‘fragment.0121.02a’ was to create some kind of basic simulation situation and simply let it run and play around with the 'natural' chaos. at the point that i see an interesting shape emerge, i freeze the process. i take it out of it's dynamic context to put it into a still picture like some kind of frozen moment.

after that, i fine-tune the basic shape, creating additional elements to define the look to accentuate the dynamic of the shape. when working on art projects, i see image creation as a dialog between the nascent image and myself. sometimes the image influences my work by itself, leads me towards its own direction. sometimes it's just me, pushing the image into the form i want. the final image can be seen as a snapshot of the dialog between myself and the image.
