Matrix of Creation
215 x 200cm, 1984
Detailed structures of matter and consciousness.
Above: the 22 golden circles stand for the 22 letters of the Hebrew alpahabet.
The subdivision into 2 x 4 vertical rhombus shaped cuboids quotes the "fourness" that
carries the earth, the world, matter as its destiny; these cuboids are
surrounded by double spirals (genetic code).
The circles of the lowewr
segments actualize themselves as ellipsoid, turning and projecting themselves,
mutating their colors, all corresponding to the properties of subatomic
quantum fields, e.g., of chromo-dynamics.
The central "fourness" continues the outer structure, yet once
again condensing and transforming itself decisivel.What was horizontal
now becomes diagonal, lines turn into waves, colors into white—and
all that at a higher clip. This results in the "threefoldness" of
the center as well as the touching circles which assume the forms of hearts
and flames.
The elemental triad and fourness of the paramount 12 white circles is continued
in the 13th circles further inside, the recurring "one" of
the subsequent layer. (The numerical value of the Hebrew word for "one"-echad-
is 13.
