Provenance / HistoryThis work explores the fundamental nature of a consciousness Universe. Impermanence and emptiness are deeply held concepts in Asian philosophies and are basic descriptors of conditions in nature where all is energetic change....Energy, matter, an consciousness are whole manifesting in an individual's causal observations......this painting is structured to demonstrate the multi level occurrences of implicate and explicate formations as described by the work of physicist, David Bohm.....and further elucidated by the recent work concerning the non-locality of the universe. 

Story / Additional InfoI have had an abiding interest in consciousness studies and have collaborated with several Neuroscientists, Biologists and Computational Physicists to study the idea that "Consciousness" is fundamental to the universe. Consciousness, Energy and Matter are all one.... superpositions manifested when observed.....Impermanence emptiness, and non locality....as David Bohm said "arising from the implicate to the explicate"....

He went on to the Maryland Institute, where he studied with painter Grace Hartigan. Here, Kerns received the Hoffberger Fellowship and graduated with an MFA in 1969. Kerns first gained exposure in 1972, when he was commissioned by art collector Larry Aldrich to paint 100 paintings over the course of the year as gifts.That same year, Kerns had his first solo art show at the AM Sachs Gallery in New York. Over the course of the 1970s and 80s, Kerns formed a close partnership with the Rosa Esman Gallery and exhibited ten solo shows there. Of his work in the late 1970s and early 80s, gallery coordinator Judith Stein says, "He works slowly, creating no more than ten large paintings a year. His media are acrylic, sand, and thread, the last used to stitch together sections of canvas. Often plywood or upsom board is used as support." Listings wanted.
