I tried to find work that felt convincing ... work that had a personal attachment. |
I want to reiterate that painting is a medium, it's a way of thinking and it's a way of seeing. I think people often think of painting as a noun, and I think of it as a verb as well as a noun. |
In either case, with both bodies of work, I strive to create a constructed reality sympathetic to our own physical and sensory experiences, but clearly built within the world of a painted language. |
When you see a show like this, I think it will make you care a lot more about art. It might make someone go start painting, inspire them to learn about an artist or start buying art. |
