( detail.... "Sun Two Venus"..............(pen and ink dots )
From the early 1970's, this artist has explored his calling in a variety of media;
primarily pencil, pen and ink, ( with pointillist techniques ), "rockatiering", and "pixography".
1979 - 1993
In collaboration with Design Draftsman.................Joseph Edward Batter......(1941- 1994)
This section began with a series of profound recoveries, connecting cosmic distances with earthly dimensions.
A multi-disciplinary exploration of an ancient geometry, and the numbers within, ensued. A scale located,
embedded, in the heart of the architecture, now emerging. The decoding, revealed over decades,
sharply enhanced by Stephens' striking and impactful visual imagery.
1980 - 1984
Tri-Ten Measure. "the Legend of Joey Bee" and "The Machine Array" (negatives)
"Brainelevator" ( 2008 - present )
Realizing how the upper and middle chambers fit geometrically inside each other.....
.....i imagined building a half scale model, would be the logical next step:
inside
1995 - present
Triggered by the visual absurdity, over some 30 years, the artist applied geometry, physics, and
muscle memory, in a tangible way; precariously balancing stones, large and small, all the while
capturing his ephemeral sculptures through photographs and drawings.
" 17 BC "
- A 10 year, public art project, raising hundreds of balanced stone constructs, on a bluff,
- alongside the "Pat Bay" highway, (17), on Vancouver Island, with fellow "Rockatier", .....Glen McConnell.

( 1990's - present ),
The artist continues to observe, interpret and capture bits
of the World around him through the lens of a camera:
"reflected hand on frosty glass"
At 905, months, (and counting), Stephen remains focused,
primarily on the "recovered", dimensions:
some recent examples:
24 divided by 1.25 = 19.2 lix, height, "Hi Phive", (upper chamber).
19.2 divided by 1.25 = 15.36 lix, height, "Point Phive", (middle chamber)
15.36 x 19.2 = 294.912, width, (17.17300206 lix), squared, both chambers.
1 lix = 1.001006153 feet.
( Base Point* is the subterranean chamber )
The artist displays his work infrequently at galleries, by choice. He remains focused
on building a theoretical and geometric framework for the subject matter
he's spent nearly half a century investigating and recording.
Despite the creatively metaphoric formatting of much of his work, Stephen does not venture
into mythmatics, nor metaphysics; deferring instead to the proven experts,
to flesh out these bare-boned axioms.

An early adopter of the world wide web, Stephens' art, and geometry,
have maintained an unbroken online presence, since the mid 90's.
