Altarform 1
2001-2005 114.3 cm X228.6 |
|
Altar work with the glass closed, enter the depths of its meagre 3 dimensionality and see the prescence imbued within. |
Detail of altar one
2005 Oil on Canvas, Shelac, Wood backing and covering, goldleaf, enamel paint. 50X35cm |
|
This is the top innermost of the Altar, it is a self portrait with a semi teleological visual description with my descention from a galaxy into a thinking being, evolutionary influences about in the cladogram. |
1st Altar Closed
2006 Windows, Oil and India ink on Masonite, Gold leaf, Sculpey, nuts. same as open. |
|
This is the Altar closed, the looming "godish" figure sits overhead, radiating aluminum rays, below the miasma of shelac obsfucates the internal structure, beckoning you foreward |
Seer of Decay
2005-06 Oil on Canvas, wood, wax castings, found objects, glass rods, ect. 228x67 |
|
This is an Altar for when mars ascended low in the skyline, prescense flows from within, though being a materialist, it must be cloaked to be meaningful, reduction elucidates its inherant absurdity and yet the prescence remains. (i like the crows and the crowish mandalla the best) |
No Lesser Vessel
2005-2006 Oil on Canvas, wood, board, Shelac, india innk, wax castings, birds nests, tree limbs, ect. 228X70 |
|
This is an Altar of import, in greek it reversed the Lesser Vessel, an altar of empowerment for women and religious import, though atheistic i can use the trappings of spirituality as a medium to prescence my altars, this is one of my wife on the front, the inside comes next. |
interior to Altar Lesser Vesse
2005-6 Oil on canvas, shelac, plastar casting, leaves, oil base varnishes same as unopened Lesser Vessel Altar |
|
This is the interior, the wise woman as sage, desolate background may sing nothing to her, but there is something found in the mind which to she attends, an offering sits above, nothing in those hands, the decay sits below awaiting her sagacious form. |
Decaying Bliss
2005 Graphite, shelac, coffee grounds, india ink, wood, enamel sign paint, sculpey 200x80 |
|
INverted Zarathustra sits above, in this heirarchy of the senses, she receives this blissfull union of the sense, this loss from the inverted lotus, hands raise with offering through the portal below, cloaked and sheathed against the inevitable she is in ectasy |
Opened Altar 4
2004-06 Paper mask, oil varnish, paint, windows, castings, enamel, paper. 200X95 |
|
The Altar is open, a desolate face waits within, meling into the organic nebular behind, the fallacy of golden treats post death glitter like lies beneath. |
