This creative project has studied the nature of reality as visualized through abstract images. The work of various artists was discussed to determine their relationship to this aspect of reality. The painters included were the Metaphysical School, Barnett Newman, Adolph Gottlieb, Ad Reinhardt, Mark Rothko, and the Zen artists. The focus on their paintings was concerned with how they developed the concepts of the void, reduction, and contemplation.From this historical advantage, the author determined his own position. Through the work for the creative project, the ideas discussed were given visual form as they described the abstract reality.
