2011/2012 Mondrian revisited

'I construct lines and colour combinations on a flat surface, it is with the aim of portraying universal beauty as consciously as possible' I believe that it is possible by means of horizontal and vertical lines, constructed consciously but not calculatingly, guided by a higher intuition and brought to harmony and rhythm .. to produce a work that is as powerful as it is true'.
Piet Mondrian (letter to H.P. Bremmer 29 January 1914)

'Chance must be as far removed as calculation'
Piet Mondrian (letter to H.P. Bremmer, ca 1914)

In my search of the role of intuition and calculation in art form I cut the intuitive images of Mondrian diagonally and orthogonally, and use these fragments as components of the structures in my series 'Monrian revisited' (2011/2012).
