Aboard the Ship Print

See more of my work @ http://jeanmicheldesmeules.wordpress.com/portfolio-art I guess in this work, my endless fascination for alien life and their technology, came through in what I saw in the original random lines and blots, etc. that I saw and decide to develop. Pareidolia Pareidolia is a psychological phenomenon that causes people to see patterns in a disordered or random visual stimulus. We believe it is a defense mechanism that permitted the distinction of a predator, amidst the dense forest for example, by our ancestors. Or even spot a prey lying still or hiding, and hunt it, whereas another predator wouldn’t have even seen it. Since 2009, I have been using this phenomenon in my most prolific graphical study, where I blindly draw upon the support: a few lines, dots, forms, and other doodles. Then I turn the support around until Pareidolia operates and my subconscious starts to see images that constantly awe and surprise me. Visions that I would not have gotten otherwise… In essence, from the initial abstract, I develop the figurative, in a way, doing the reverse work done by the great Abstract Painters. Which all the while, forces a certain abstract basis to subside in the resulting figurative artwork.
