"This was a deliberate attempt at creating a work of art that reads visually as a symphony of colour, light [and] differing time signatures. The modulation of the form of the paintings is done in a way where there are quiet passages and more aggressive areas, all working together in synchronicity, or harmony of design." — Peter Wayne Lewis
