Arabella Caccia

Artist’s Statement

What at first glance comes across as abstract and accidental mark making is supported on a scaffold of fractal forms that Arabella Caccia is fine tuned into and which she sees everywhere around her. Think of the patters lichen forms on rocks or the patterns of foam on water. Once one starts becoming aware of them, they are everywhere. In a similar way to mathematics and measurement underlying the way one starts to make sense of the natural world, Caccia is using fractal patterns as a language to tie all her recent work together. To have insight into her imaginary world, fractal patterns provide the key.
