These abstract paintings demonstrate connections between music and art, and between language and mind. The tendencies of colors and forms within liquid media, when allowed to be active in the outcome and process of painting, are able to form themselves into resonant and naturalistic conjunctions and permutations of their initial conditions and states - and this serves the artist as poetic metaphor - one most apt to express the profound interconnectedness of the universe. Language is a crystallisation of this continuum of connectedness into a sequence or arrangement of quantised parts which flows instead by logic.

Wayne A. Roberts, 2003
