Platz’s art revolves around the creation and destruction of spaces as a means of rebellion against that which is set, as a way of underscoring transformation and natural changes. Each present state holds in it what happened before, earlier traits and experiences, in a sense of endlessness and no return. The abstract is, for him, a way of reflecting universality, a labyrinth with many ways-in and no certain outcome. A constantly shifting dance. Space and the body are the structuring vectors; the tension between surface and figure, the gravitational, rejection of space and loss of balance connect to the spiritual in a proposal where alchemy and creativity meet to generate art.
