Robert Schmid "New Paintings"
Sears-Peyton Gallery
This event has ended.
Trained as a chemist, Robert Schmid combines his background in math and science to create a personal visual language that defies verbal explanation. His work is influenced by quantum mechanics, the Fibonacci Series, fractals, and electronic distortion, which are all contributing factors that affect the patterns and visual organization in his work. Schmid is interested in the mind’s manipulation of time. His compositions are intended to be irrational, establishing new correlations between dissimilar components. The crowd scenes have an especially peculiar sense of uncertainty because the randomly placed people create a sense of perceived patterns and associations even as they are separate and unrelated. Schmid has been painting for many years: from life, the computer, TV and photographs. This series of work was inspired by his travels in Manhattan, Florence, and Marrakesh.
