Statement
|
|
Working with acrylic and mica creates several paintings in one. What appears to be a calm sea in bright light, will turn into a raging ocean when the lighting becomes diffused. The acrylic absorbs the light, while the mica reflects it. These pieces are often referred to as "living paintings." In my new body of work, "wallscapes", I am exploring the texture of walls adorned with religious icons. Peeling paint, faded wallpaper, and torn images create an abstract vision of the world we live in.
