Derek Des Islets' paintings are intuitively formed and spiritually guided visual descriptions of the quantum nature of reality. Using images of scientific instruments as a compositional foundation, his work explores the path of energy, thought, and feeling. The fusion of biological signatures, like a beating heart denoted as an electrocardiograph, with time using lines, serves as a visual description of life. These elements act as metaphorical "packets" of memory and emotion, with varying values of length, width, and hue. The globular elements serve as spiritual capacitors on canvas, catalyzing connections within the paintings. Derek's works aim to act as a codex to the universe, expressed in a language beyond comprehension.
