Style and technique of the artist: Printmakers, Installation art, Painting,
Like Haeckel, ChanSchatz work from an encyclopedic database of minutely differentiated forms. Crab-like clusters joined in tight rings hover next to starburst mandalas. Tiled mosaic borders abut spectral buds. Broad, oscilloscopic curves dance across the picture plane like errant lassos intent on reigning in the excess energy. Although a certain psychedelic profusion obtains, nowhere present is the lava lamp’s squeezed lozenges or the kaleidoscope’s perfect symmetry.

Actually it’s in the creative process of those paintings that lays their meaning. Eric and Heather ChanSchatz created in the mid 90’s an index of forms, colours combinations and phrases which serve as the basis of all their work.
