"Met mijn werk wil ik een visueel tegenwicht bieden aan de vereenvoudiging en standaardisering van onze omgeving."
Control is the main theme in the work of Art van Triest (1983, NL). The human tendency to exorcise his fundamental fear and uncertainty manifests itself in various forms of order, a system, which satisfies our need for control. For van Triest, the contrast between built or generated forms with a geometric character and whimsical organic forms created by natural processes is a visual metaphor for how reality escapes the system in which we try to contain it.
