Octagon Perception Experiment B/W
Jay Mills, B/W
perception experiment, 2016, Digital print on paper, 40cm x 40cm
These Octagon perception experiments are concerned with elements of time, motion, space, optics, and perception. Its foundations are non-objective perceptual response, simplicity is its dominant and most essential characteristic. Its subject matter is abstract and consists of geometric forms, mechanical patterns; aiming to create a heightened optical response from the viewer. From developing, an understanding of how pattern, symmetry and line have been used by optical artists in the 20th Century I have began to reduce my colour palette to black and white for this work. The minds capricious impulses are not entirely dependent on colour, The high contrast of black and white often conveys the feeling of complementaries and provides powerful results that would not be as effective in colour.
