Abstract
projects:
This
is a recent series of paintings. The ideas about it developed gradually,
through my career as an IT professional and through personal experiences
with people and reflections on these experiences. If you work in a
project, there are always things that are complicated. Communications,
discussions about the financial part, time pressure, etc. What I try
to capture in these project series is the idea of a project as a timeline.
It starts on the leftside of the painting and ends on the rightside.
Some projects start with hardly anyone having a clue, and some start
with a very clear idea of the goals and path to follow in mind. I
have used a few real live occasions as a source of inspiration for
this painting. I hope that the people in question are not too unhappy
about the outcome. Something related to these projects are the landscapes
of the Canarian Island La Palma where I recently was. For instance
the projects with the name volcano in their titles are partly inspired
by the Palmese landscapes. I hope you will enjoy looking at these
paintings.
