DescriptionWorking with the golden ratio, fractals, and gradients in her geometric abstract paintings, Jordann Wine connects her artworks to deep space in both time and meditation. She invites viewers to contemplate the infinite through floating, falling, fading, and unfolding hand-drawn patterns. In Black Hole, the viewer senses the gravitational pull of the widening black center of the piece and, like a true black hole, its impact on the tiny triangles that cluster in the corners.
