Artist Statement:
Object vs Voice
In my current paintings I
started by bringing forth
detailed attention to the
face. Our mirror to the world.
Revealing its secrets, moods,
thoughts, desires. Telling the
story of the person, looked
at, so close. The subject.
Creating a door through their
eyes for one to enter. It felt
invasive from the start so, I
devised a hiding ploy -
stripes mainly, but bubbles
and veils too. It gave the
face a partial haze to float
in, a delay before the impact
of our investigation. It
brought forward the painting's
surface and left the depth
available for the face alone.
Then my love for and interest
in the narratives in classical
art paintings delivered
another possibility to add to
the story. With a two way
option. The interpretation of
a subject from a classical
painting helping to explain
the face and the face
returning the favor. In some
works the story telling is
punctuated by objects
interacting with the face. The
stripes stayed....
