Daniel Martin Diaz brings together science and art in his intricate, entrancing, geometric works of art. The location of his current exhibition speaks to the diversity of his work. Rather than a traditional gallery, the exhibition Universal Codes is being presented at Everhart Museum of Natural History, Science, and Art. Here’s more from Danielmartindiaz.com:
At the core of Diaz’s philosophy, art serves as a mirror to humanity, a narrative medium that delves into the physical and metaphysical realms. His work is a quest to articulate the ineffable, employing arcane imagery and techniques that transcend verbal expression. Diaz grapples with the juxtaposition of technological prowess and our quantum interconnection with the universe, pondering the implications of technology on humanity’s future and our collective responsibility towards the world and each other.
Diaz’s fascination with scientific and philosophical concepts is evident in his work. His interest spans Anatomy, Computer Science, Math, Cosmology, Biology, Quantum Physics, and Consciousness. He finds an unexpected beauty in scientific diagrams, which, despite their utilitarian nature, captivate him with their aesthetic simplicity. Diaz’s preference for drawing as a medium stems from its intimacy and immediacy, qualities he finds uniquely expressive compared to painting.
