Painter Raschart 1983 – Present (31 years) Duality – abstraction and representation, the literal and the metaphorical, science and mysticism, mortality and existence, the unseen and the seen – is a predominant theme in my work. These pieces, based on electron microscopy, are an expression of both the patterns of the natural world and the metaphors underlying modern science. They allow us to see the beauty in the repulsive, to find knowledge in the unknown, to observe the microscopic to more clearly see our world. Among the dualities explored is the contrast between the beauty of microscopic images of deathly viruses and the reality they represent. In confronting the duality of the microcosmos, we are forced to face our mortality while appreciating the magnificence of the universe.
