Quest ["...or even the imperfect."]
Digital Composition 2022no.20

________________________________________________

Quest ["...or even the imperfect."]: Digital Composition 2022no.20 is a sequence of image files developed from a set of stock photos into layers of abstract patterned forms. The layers of pattern and form follow an underlying grid structure keyed to the overall format.

The quote is from Anna Deavere Smith's Letters to a Young Artist: Straight-up Advice on Making a Life in the Arts-For Actors, Performers, Writers, and Artists of Every Kind, p.124, Anchor, 2008:

"Perhaps art is a quest for the perfect, or even the imperfect.
Reality always falls short on both sides."

Below is a video presentation of the image-sequence followed by a selection of still images from the composition's development thus far.

Thank you for viewing.
