Notebook

Notbook is an informal collection of ideas, paintings and photographs revealing the creative process of contemporary artist Chris Page.

Five Ways of Sky

World of Form, Form in Emptiness, Approaching Emptiness, Emptiness as Void, Emptiness as All Things Visible. This is similar to the ox herding pictures often depicted in Zen arts.

Soft Gaze Meditation Field.

Experimental work from several years ago using pastel text on a sky photograph. The upper text comes from a combination of internet research and thought awareness that arose during a walk. The bottom text is the optical technique I used for experiencing this particular sky. The blue paint is totally accidental as this was lying around the studio for several years.

Returning to Blue o4.15.2015

While walking on April 15.2015 at Wentworth Farm Conservation Area I kept returning my attention to the predominantly cloudless sky for over an hour between 5:35 to 6:40pm. This group of twenty eight photographs documents this walk  (shown below the installation photograph) . 

This work was installed as part of the Sky Walk show in the summer of 2015.
