About this artwork
There are 64 individual "mini" circles forming a grid within the painting. 64 is also a title of a Beatles song. The painting was developed/composed with a series of digital images (patterns) with a layered circle in the center. I then place the 64 circles overtop the composition. Why circles? For me the circle represents the infinity, no beginning and no end. It is also a place for meditation or contemplation. It also is the source of geometric…
abstraction, the beginning if you will. So I am interested in the juxtaposition of the source and the digital.

« Our perception of color is an illusion. What we perceive/see on a surface is the absence/void or rejection of a color. »
Patrick Schmidt is an artist based in the United States whose paintings have been featured in solo exhibitions nationally and in Italy. Principally inspired by Op art, he believes that color changes our moods and that colors and patterns alter our identities. Schmidt describes his vivid works as hard-edge color fields with a digital sensibility that explores the language of geometric abstraction.
