Circles in Phases

Started in 1974 my Circles have provided a format for exploring space and form with variations provided here by decade. The concept initially was a centered viewer with surrounding environment depicted via fences and posts. It later morphed into a Yin/Yang duality with contrasting panels where the circle and square are the same area but differ in apparent size.

I cannot escape the tug of simple duality in life, and so have continued to pursue a visual solution that attempts to resolve it.
