- Paintings: 1963-72 - > Kinetic Painting: 1967-68

These Kinetic paintings were in part inspired by my take on surrealist concepts that inform aspects my position in art up to the present. I designed, constructed, and timed each of their motors so that undulating movements would radiate from each surface creating a pulsing rhythm. The repetitive rotations seem almost organic and alive, generating a hallucinatory and destabilizing experience.
