Spiral of life

This seems to be the law of progress in everything we do; it moves along a spiral rather than a perpendicular;
we seem to be actually going out of the way, and yet it turns out that we were really moving upward all the time.
Frances E. Willard

I'm fascinated by spirals, in all their variations
Geometrical or not, in ying and yang, in form of labyrinths
Interesting is that the spiral as a symbol can be found in all primoridal cultures all around the world,
whereas the circle was not.
Anybody an idea why mankind was fascinated by this symbol?

The abstract images in the "The Energy & Process" series all originated as digital photographs.
Many are digitally processed.
My work is all original, except by way of inspiration from abstract expressionist artists of the
1950s, such as Pollock, Rothko or of Cy Twombly, and others. As I work with the shifting (or varying) colors and fluctuating (or free) forms in these images,
I am reminded of the interaction between elements and energy. Color and form come alive in my
imagination and become a part of the ongoing process of life. Abstract images are my way of
showing how mundane things can be transformed into mystery; a mystery that calls each of us
to explore, discover and embrace in their own way. If you are interested to see more you can aquire my Book "From Energy and Impression"
