Norman Gabitzsch – Pine Needles in Notan

Description

Artist Statement

I live in a world of visual pollution, but I know worlds of Physical and Spiritual beauty exist.  I am constantly on the lookout for small enclaves of beauty, but they keep getting harder to find.  So I try looking in different ways.  I try looking with different types of light … soft light, strong light, light disturbed by strong weather, and the invisible light of infrared light.  I try looking at complexity from new perspectives, and nature the way other creature see it.

I can find beauty in symmetry, asymmetry. and chaos.  I find beauty in nature as well as architecture.  I find beauty in life and in the day to day struggle to survive.  I find beauty in simplicity and in complexity.  Beauty is everywhere if you look the right way.
