Apparition: The Act of Appearing Under the gaze of the viewer, the paintings become operative as they exert their influence. Multiple feelings and or ideas are possible, as opposed to a mono-topical experience. The image doesn't represent something, it addresses someone. I'm interested in subject matter - the work is engaged in seeking a location, a situation, not abstraction. Paint has a particular capacity to become a locus for an experience of the actual, the concrete, in opposition to the depicted - the imagined. Painting can examine the human condition and the condition of nature in a distanced and non-literal manner. By attempting to maximize the luminosity and the plasticity of the picture surface, the paintings become sensuous and unstable, so the whole embraces a notion of being sealed and open, simultaneously. In the end, the object of the image is never more than the consciousness one brings to the encounter. |
