Rhapsody in Blue / Stata Center, MIT / SML.20090801.10D.50885

How do you paint with photography? By creating composition of forms from the surroundings around you. I picked up photography because it’s a way to see — it’s how I see the world.

 

The understanding of forms is best understood when you can find representative structure in space that you could capture on a 2D plane.

 

It’s like music — but rhythm, melody, and harmony in space. Sometimes it’s hard to even describe what these things are.

 

Often, it’s a feeling. Emotion is hard to describe. This is an abstract painting about monochromatic blues, accented by the tip of a white paint and shades of gold in the shadow.

 

Stata Center, officially the Ray and Maria Stata Center and sometimes referred to as Building 32, is a 430,000-square-foot academic complex designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Frank Gehry for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The building opened for initial occupancy on March 16, 2004.
