Bitten planarity

The Bitten Planarity is a series of abstract, imaginary drawings that explore the interplay between two-dimensional shapes and the perception of three-dimensional space. In this work, the concept of “bitten” or “remaining” 2D planes is used to form abstract shapes that evoke a sense of spatial depth, challenging the viewer to imagine space within the boundaries of a flat surface.

The process behind these drawings is a journey of exploration, where I attempt to create a 3D experience while working within the confines of 2D lines and colour. The lines are dynamically cut, and while they physically exist on the flat white paper, I aim to envision them as though they could exist in three dimensions. In this sense, it’s a simpler, graphic expression of how I might develop 3D space using just 2D drawings, a process that allows me to focus purely on creativity without the immediate constraints of practical issues.

The abstract images created through this method are intentionally open to interpretation. How you perceive the work depends entirely on how you approach it: if you wish to see space, the drawing will invite you to imagine the space within it, as though it were a three-dimensional form. However, if you view the image as a flat 2D composition, it will remain just that—an entirely flat drawing. This duality is key to the Bitten Planarity, providing an open-ended experience where the image can shift between the realms of flatness and depth, depending on the viewer's perception.

Ultimately, the Bitten Planarity is a playful and imaginative exploration, focused on creative expression rather than solving practical design problems. It invites both the artist and the viewer to engage with space in a more abstract, artistic manner, blurring the lines between 2D and 3D worlds.
