“Form is set by the process of giving form, which is more important than the form itself.” Paul Klee

Breaking the two and three dimensional fields of traditional art into the fourth dimension is a primary drive in my creative process. Infusing these fields with aesthetic resonance is the goal. Expression, abstraction, representation and spatialism converge in my work through meditative explorations of perspective, color and structure. I aim to build physical and visual stimuli into multi sensory experiences that lead the viewer to a state of reflection and pause. My work navigates the contemporary landscape establishing platforms from which to gain new perspectives In my paintings I work with collaging photographic and designed elements, layering combinations of color, patterns and stenciled imagery. I work with a broad range of media and techniques, using my paintings as stepping stones into atmospheric sculptures and audio/visual installations. I incorporate various themes in my work, from ancient mythologies, my own heritage, new media and societal trends to investigations of art and its presentation in contemporary culture. I develop my art through a studio practice of collaboration, research, exploration and experimentation. In exploring the creative process I search for ways to achieve an aesthetic balance with conceptual and visual clarity.

Patterns of Perspective Pulchri Studio Den Haag, Netherlands Zaklynsky's exhibition of new paintings entitled "New Works - Patterns of Perspective" will bring the viewer into an environment of resonance and vibration. Visual structures consisting of parallax color patterns and machine-controlled network structures in the space create new work that is aimed at bringing the viewer into a new experiential visual space. These works will float around the visual breaking line. The 2-dimensional space of the canvas is split into a three-dimensional structure that shimmers and vibrates. The works are inspired by recent discoveries and observations of gravitational waves and the reality that 'space' seems seemingly infinite in all directions. www.pulchri.nl/tentoonstellingen/new-works-patterns-of-perspective Solo
