Of Choice and Chance - exploring the borderlands of intention and occurrence -
Paintings by David Nelson
New Hampshire based artist David Nelson investigates life's balance of control and randomness by spattering primary colors through a system of objects controlled by random numbers or chance. The paint falls through a grid of wooden squares, some of which are removed using random numbers generated courtesy of www.random.org. As the colors mix pointillistically, a painting emerges with a will of its own. Nelson's paintings are an experiment into the meticulously controlled accident; a process of achieving a specific vision through chaotic means; and a look into the paradoxical balance that each of us - even God - faces every day.
