Light Wave Reflections Series

Visually the superficial is interesting, but it's only one element in the multi-dimensional universe according to Julian Oteyza, creator of Dyslexart, his invention designed to assist the viewer to see things from a different perspective. Julian's new series quite literally separates the layers of his latest compositions into translucent, transparent and opaque with the most important character of light energy, you, the viewer.
A shift in your position will allow you to visually peel the layers aside to discover depth. Julian's fascination with science, invention and energy led him to his latest endeavor to share his gift of shifting perception which allows him to see in "pictures". Julian found that when light strikes matter it can be transmitted through the substance it strikes. Transparency allows the light waves to pass through, translucency allows some light wave to be transmitted, and an opaque coating, does not allow most light waves through. Just as reflected images appear to the human eye to exist in a different location to the original object (visualize a mirror where right is left) Julian's "Light Wave Reflections" series offers an opportunity to see beneath the surface in his continued effort to share his different view of objects.
Since eyes cannot determine the "history" of a wave of light, the brain must interpret what it "sees" as if a light were originating from an object and not the surface. The subject matter in Julian's "Light Wave Reflections" is pertinent to his personal history both in the Philippines and in the United States. As with his previous works, Rotating Perspectives, Dyslexart and Emerging Dimensions, there is no wrong way to view the art. As you view this work, you'll see layers of his visual history creatively designed to tell a story. If the light waves align with your light energy, you'll see your self reflected in the surface… only then is the work complete.
