Ragnar Jonasson
(35 years old. Born in Iceland. Lives in: Glasgow)
Glasgow School of Art

In painting as well as in other media I find the relationship between the artist and the work to be extremely important. Whatever you reflect on and whatever the subject, your interpretation is total and essential for the work to become something with substance. In my work I do mostly self-portraits as a painter and an artist and try to find imagery suitable to represent both the material and the more intangible aspects of the artists relationship with his work. My paintings are poured and are made solely out of paint. I also cut the paint up into little squares and rearrange it onto aluminium.

Work of art I would like to make

I would like to do one painting which is poured and another one where I cut up the paint and reconstruct it, both paintings would be around 1.50 m x 1 m. The poured painting would be an image of a brain scan and it would demonstrate the activity in the brain while painting the picture in question, as a brain scan reveals through colour activities in the brain. I have in my previous works used in the background of my works a blobby version of the Rorschach test but in this image it would take centre stage as mirrored patterns of the brain. In the deconstruction I would unify the colours of the brain painting into two dominant colours, one dark and one light as to demonstrate the origin of idea or a microscopic approach to the subject matter.
