Working on composition, as with writing, is a continual process. Structuring space in according to the primal image originally felt by Stibio, develops into what could be called a personal calligraphy of the landscape. Entire segments or even just a line are sometimes left unfinished, setting off the possibility to complete in the mind’s eye what has been left incomplete. The perception of the subject matter is deliberately and continually questioned. This forces viewers into a calligraphy of the landscape in their own minds. Optically destabilising effects, compel the viewer to have a different perception of the land. One that is ultimately intimately intuitive.
