TROPICAL DREAM, Acrylic, Ink & mixed media with resin on board, 170 cm x 100 cm, 2019 SOLD
Jorg was born to German parents and raised in Switzerland. In 1995 he immigrated to New Zealand. Jorg paints on board as he applies paint not only with brushes but also by skimming paint with tools and removing parts of layers.
I reconstruct aspects of natural forms and textures in my non objective paintings. My intention is to bring the viewer into a world that they are familiar with and feel comfortable with. I would like the viewer to connect subconsciously, to get drawn into discovering the paintings aspects and to be enriched and spiritually uplifted by experiencing the formal beauty of the abstract form. I find patterns in sand that water leaves at the beach, in tree bark, in rocks, plants or the sky. My interest in architecture is reflected in my artwork. I include the interplay of geometrical lines with natural patterns. I'm fascinated, and my art is influenced, by the phenomena of the Golden Ratio and the Fibonacci numbers which play a significant role in nature and architecture.
