About Sandy
Patterns in art and design have fascinated me since school days seeing the art of Aubrey Beardsley, Auguste Klimt and Marimekko designs from Finland. Lately artists like Yayoi Kusama and Beatriz Milhazes have inspired me. As a traveller I have been captivated by Batik and Ikat designs and by the patterns used in architecture throughout Eastern countries especially India, Thailand and Indonesia.
At its most basic level life is patterns. Source energy expresses itself as infinite shapes and forms in the universe, whilst our mind uses pattern recognition to make sense of the world around us.
I find the intricacy and repetitiveness of patterns calming and soothing in times of chaos in life.
My artistic future will be a deepening immersion into the patterns of life, and reflection on how source energy enlightens and colours each moment of connection.
