Alphabet of Geometry 42. From The Alphabet of Geometry Series, 2023

Neerja Chandna Peters  

The series Geometric Alphabet is part of my series Geometric Abstract, in which the abstract game is used in the form of asemic writing with geometric shapes. Here Peters recreates her fascination with ancient text in abstraction, to accompany the subtle symbolism of her compositions that evoke the quest.

Neerja Chandna Peters enjoys navigating harmony through the play of lines with their symmetrical synchrony and rhythmic interplay, manipulating the nuances, their saturation and their values, thus creating a subtle movement of optics with their variable refrangibility.

In her compositions, lines and light are not mere aesthetic choices, but act as conduits that lead the viewer into a space of stillness and contemplation. Over time, the artist has come to understand that clarity often lies in reduction. A single color or the movement of a line can evoke a deep resonance when approached with intention.

This practice is as much about process as it is about outcome. It is about finding balance, not just on the canvas, but within. The act of creating becomes a reflection of this alignment, a moment when the finite touches the infinite, and the work itself becomes an offering.

This artwork presents a striking composition of geometric precision and vibrant color contrasts. Dominated by a symmetrical arrangement of circles and triangles, it captivates with its balance and harmony. Central to the piece is a complex interplay of overlapping circles in bold hues of red, yellow, and orange, creating a sense of depth and movement. The background features intricate, linearly arranged gray and white triangles, contributing a dynamic and textured dimension. This meticulous alignment enhances the central motif, drawing the viewer's eye towards its structured core. The use of curved and linear elements juxtaposes fluidity against rigidity, offering an intriguing visual tension. The artwork's mathematical elegance and bold color palette make it a compelling interpretation of modern abstract design, reflecting a profound understanding of spatial composition and artistic symmetry.
