Chameleonic "Black Square"

-

Tom R. Chambers sees this approach quite a bit where artists/photographers superimpose "Black Square" (particularly) and other geometric forms onto images (photographs) to make a point. I have taken this a bit further, perhaps, by superimposing "Black Square", but in chameleonic fashion where this geometric form takes on some of the color of its surroundings (within the image/photograph) ... my point being that "Black Square" is "organic" ... melding with Nature and the Cosmos.

MY DEAR MALEVICH (MDM)

MY DEAR MALEVICH (MDM) This homage to Kazimir Malevich is an affirmation of Tom R. Chambers' "Pixelscapes" as Geometric Abstractionist Art and in keeping with Malevich's Suprematism - the feeling of non-objectivity - the creation of a sense of bliss and wonder via abstraction. Chambers' action of looking within a portrait (photo) of Kazimir Malevich to find the basic component(s), pixel(s) is the same action as Malevich looking within himself - inside the objective world - for a pure feeling in creative art to find his "Black Square", "Black Cross" and other Suprematist works. And there's a mathematical parallel between Malevich's primitive square ("Black Square") ... divided into four, then divided into nine ("Black Cross") ... and Chambers' "Pixelscapes" . The pixel is the most basic component of any computer graphic, and it can be represented by 1 bit (a 1 if the pixel is black, or a ...

O blique views ... "flyovers" ... of some of the art pieces from Tom R. Chambers' "Digital Suprematism - Geometric Abstraction" series (DSGA) ( https://digsup.my.canva.site/ ). The following courtesy of: "Aero‐Art, The Planetary View: Kazimir Malevich and Lazar Khidekel", Charlotte Douglas; reprinted from "Lazar Khidekel and Suprematism", Regina Khidekel, editor (New York, Munich, London: Prestel, 2014) (pages 27 – 33): "Kazimir Malevich had been concerned about flight for six or seven years before moving to Vitebsk in 1919. The public's passion for airplanes and flying began around 1908. The spreading craze for flight early in the new century led people in Russia and the Western world to find themselves strangely unhooked from the Earth and ever more gazing down upon the abstract patterns of towns, field and rivers." The enlarged and oblique views of the DSGA art pieces provide slanting or inclined in direction or course or pos...

DSGA Polyptychs (Tetraptychs/Quadriptychs)

-

Art pieces from Tom R. Chambers' "Digital Suprematism - Geometric Abstraction" series ( Digital Suprematism (canva.site) )  have been rotated (clockwise) through four panels at 45, 135, 225, and 315 degrees. The vertical placeholders create an interesting polyptych (tetraptych or quadriptych).  The polyptych originated as a form of sacred art, as a term to describe art in general, it can be seen to encompass any work of art constituted by multiple pieces of art such as sculpture, photography, or video and text-based art forms. Polyptychs were most commonly created by early Renaissance painters, the majority of whom designed their works to be altarpieces in churches and cathedrals. The polyptych form of art was also quite popular among ukiyo-e printmakers of Edo period Japan. Some medieval manuscripts are polyptychs, particularly Carolingian works, in which the columns on the page are framed with borders that resemble polyptych paintings.  Digital Suprematism (canva.site)
