These dots are not precise tiny circles but irregular small blotches and ovoid bits. Together they produce the effect of linear vertical or radial array. The paintings portray a higher order from unapparent micro randomness. The colors have different psychological effect with environmental associations. Bibel finds cosmic implications, hence the titles. |
