Ensemble of Lines- Alex Carmona

     The simplicity of a single solitary line is where my campaign begins. When multiplied by the power of pattern, the foundations of a cohesive yet complicated war map has been laid out, revealing the beginning of a thought-provoking battle through the jungles of visual tonality. The treacherous terrain of interwoven fibers can only be navigated with a thorough understanding of species and gouge. An uncompromising coordination of tactical maneuvers transforms each individual line until the landscape has just enough information to tell the crucial tale of value. A value that ranges from the darkest trenches of your nightmares to the blinding brightness of victory on an overtaken hill. 

 

     This unwinnable war consists of infinite battles. Paradoxical battles that can never be won. Instead, these battles are meant to instill an unrelenting resolve of growth. This war has but one enemy - The limitation of the mind. This ever-changing enemy has one goal - Incarceration of creativity. This is my art, my life, my struggle. 

 

     Ordinary art can hold you prisoner. Think beyond it and you’ll be set free.
