Decision Matrix #5

23 inch x 8 inch

While making decisions, human beings weigh factors and attempt to make the best decision according to their own parameters for success. This process relies on a multitude of factors such as environmental, past decision outcomes, individual drives and many more both known and unknown. The process of weighing out these perceived situational factors is how we come to our decisions. This process of decision making is difficult to understand due to the numerous factors that separate us as individuals. This means that we can only understand decision making scientifically on a sociological level but not a psychological one. This is because the true nature of understanding only lies within the individual making the decision, making the factors nearly unquantifiable. These paintings are visual depictions of the matrix created in our own minds while making decisions. These works of art want to invoke deep thought within the viewer to attempt to better understand these factors that consciously and subconsciously play a role in what and how we choose. In these paintings, the different color canvas strips represent different factors or goals within our decision making process. While the inwoven and crossed application of these strips is intended to represent the commingling of these different factors while we make a decision. The unpainted strips represent the factors that we can’t see, don’t know and can’t control. Including these unpainted strips shows the random and unknown factors that are out of our control and affect these decisions. These paintings ask the question; Why does Som1 decide to do one something?
