In this painting, I present a swirling abstract composition reminiscent of stained glass in motion. From the center, a spiral of color planes spirals outward, as if the image is slowly breathing, drawing everything into a silent vortex. The shapes appear composed of irregular cells, like a mosaic of glass fragments, outlined by subtle, dark contours. Within each plane, colors flow into each other: deep blue and purple, emerald green, warm yellow, and accents of red and turquoise. The light seems to emanate from within, giving the whole an almost transparent, layered appearance. The dynamism lies in the contrast between structure and movement: the solid, almost crystalline patterns are distorted by the rotation, creating tension and energy. The painting invites you to linger; the longer you look, the more details and color transitions reveal themselves. It feels like a visual metaphor for change, flow, and inner movement.
Why collect this work?
A cellular lattice is pulled into a central spiral, making rigid segmentation appear fluid while the square boundary holds the disturbance in place.
- MikoArt, the label used by Miechel Kockelkoren, describes a practice centered on translating digital compositions into physical objects. Here, that approach supports the conflict between calculated pattern and simulated turbulence.
- The photograph shows irregular, dark-edged compartments bending around an off-center vortex. Narrow streaks accelerate the rotation, while larger cells near the perimeter slow it, producing a strong shift in visual tempo.
- Catalogue metadata identifies a photographic-paper print mounted on 3 mm Alu-Dibond and covered with 2 to 3 mm resin. That construction may reinforce luminosity and depth, although the photograph cannot establish the work’s exact gloss, colour, or surface texture.
- This 2016 work provides a concrete case for examining how a digitally generated image becomes object-like: the printed illusion of translucent cells is paired with an actual layered support and coating.
