Ten Triangles 04

This type of work is closely related to modern science, for there is no way to separate art and science; they are always together, and the artist's need to employ these sciences require him to do so, and for him to present a meaningful work, he must himself understand.
The Ten Triangles belongs to the style of System Art, which is based on precise and organized mathematical elements. These elements all correlated by an organization the viewer cannot understand unless he or she enjoys the nuances within.
The work possesses a geometrical organization; it is made up of triangles with the symmetry of a System Art's work that shows the viewer something different, peculiar to this artist, yet following a generally strict mathematical, geometrical system accurate in its application of color, line, shape and the other elements.
The strategy of the work is closely related to mathematics, creating triangles with specific numerical insignia. The triangles are related by the simple mathematical function of addition: ten triangles with different color blocs and shapes within them, of equal areas, and internally related by an arithmetical system. For instance the number 1 is different from the number two because of the number of internal lines and colored blocs, and hence the sequential relationship: the higher the number, the more lines there are and vice versa.
The basic work system, based on addition, comes from the table resulting from the addition of the five numbers and the five, resulting in several numerical groups, arranged and organized according to a strict circular system that is flawless. Mistakes in this type of art cannot be admitted. They are different from mistakes in other art forms... they are mistakes that do not belong to the system.
