I have lived and travelled in China and India and am interested in Eastern art and cultures. In 2004 I came across a reference to triangles in a book on Islamic art. Amongst other meanings, a triangle is seen to give geometric expression to two entities and their reconciling relationship. This tied in so well with my idea of the many relating principles that underpin the rhythms of the world that I began making paintings patterned and peopled by triangles. These paintings are almost meditative.
