Hal Trager
Hal Trager’s artistry unfolds in a mesmerizing dance between symmetry and illusion. Upon first glance, each piece appears to be an impeccable display of order and balance. Perfectly aligned forms, meticulously drawn , evoke a sense of mathematical precision. However, as you delve deeper into Trager’s work, you quickly discover that this is no ordinary symmetry.
Trager’s art is a masterclass in optical illusion. Each form, though organized, plays tricks on the eye. Geometric patterns spiral into infinity, creating a sense of endless depth and movement. The meticulously rendered symmetry begins to shift and warp, challenging our perception of reality. What seems rigid and predictable at first glance becomes fluid and dynamic upon closer inspection.
The artist’s choice of vellum and plastic matte paper as canvas adds an ethereal quality to the work. The translucent nature of vellum allows light to pass through, casting delicate shadows that interact with the forms on the page. This interplay of light and shadow deepens the illusion, as the forms appear to float and evolve, further blurring the line between reality and the imagination.
