ARTIST STATEMENT: |
- |
|
My paintings act on the edges of vision, where the semi-formed
emerges. Teasing and delicate, the oil paint reveals uncertain
things. I lay down the paint, manipulating it, moving it
across the surface, trying to find a point where the paint forms
an ‘image’ yet, simultaneously, collapses back into being paint.
The movement between paint as illusion and paint as matter
through gesture is central to my practice. The action of
deformation within the creation of form. Often the most
interesting things come out of the wiped back, negative spaces. |
