The Binary Code Mantra Series
This series features a collection of paintings with binary code messages. It occurred to me that binary code is the new universal language. Every text we send and everything we do online is via binary code. People of virtually every nation now communicate and get information online.
In another line of thought, Tibetan and Nepalese Buddhists believe that the messages printed on their prayer flags are carried indefinitely by the wind. I believe the same about works of art; the intention put into a work of art continues to emanate from the painting long after the paint dries.
With these two seemingly unrelated thoughts in mind, I decided to create a series of positive messages in binary code that people long to and deserve to hear. They can all be appropriately whispered or yelled enthusiastically. Each piece is entitled with the translation of the binary code message in the painting.
