| 关于此艺术家 |
Obscure, private visions that alienate the mind in daylight, keep a potent mooring within me. Inspired by what the mind conjures, the process of perception is influenced by contemplation. Shadows, objects and shapes are gateways to memories. What we see is truly imagined; our imaginings mingle with our perceptions. In dreaming before the rooms I paint, I come in contact with transient psychological aspects.
Literally and symbolically, interior spaces are self-controlled and apart from the world. Rooms are states of being; manifestations of the mind; protected and shielded. The interior is a metaphor for the self. While nudging perception toward visual metaphor, I seek visual surprise that cannot be contrived. Visual and conceptual depth intersect through a back and forth process of direct observation and separation; reality is the support for suggestion. Under changing conditions, paintings are built up piece by piece, seeking compositional and conceptual resonance. Additively and subtractively, alternate descriptions are explored through the medium. Manifestations of human presences emerge; fragments of the many moments which build a painting. Through visual search, variety of application surpasses the objects as symbols and leaves them as temporal evidence. |
