Non-representational
artist Howard R. Barnhart unites colorist and Constructivist
methods creating abstract geometric art in several media
including digital animations,
digital prints and relief
constructions.
Barnhart' digital prints and
animations form a basis for relief constructions of
acrylic, panels and wood. He does not use the prints and
animations as blueprints for fabricating a relief
mechanically, but, rather, as viewpoints of departure from which
he can project and visualize some of the three-dimensional
implications of the composition.
A relief
construction becomes
an embodiment of that exploration and may incorporate features from
any number of animation files or prints.
