Artist Statement:
During my time in India I
noticed what I would call an
indescribable “energy” that
permeated my surroundings. I
have had difficulty
understanding what this
“energy” is and why I found it
there. I have discovered that
this “energy” is not only a
part of India but also is an
eternal force that is a part
of our world. I see the world
through thin veils of
alternate realities and find
myself in the middle of a
physical/metaphysical
world--somewhere between
conscious and unconscious,
where the physicality of the
world in nature meets the
spirit of the mind. These
ideas are inseparable; they
form a symbiotic relationship,
in which seemingly opposing
ideas cannot be present
without the other; they are
ONE.
This series explores the
presence of this eternal
mystery and dialectic force
between the
physical/metaphysical world in
my life. Elements of East
Indian architecture are the
source of inspiration for this
project, developing from a
semester I spent in India.
The architectural elements
serve as a vehicle for
associating this abstract idea
with something that is
tangible.
India weaves complex colors,
layers, and veils into
harmonious energy. These
paintings embrace this by
creating movement and energy
within...
