Project Description:
These paintings look at how paint can exist in the context of everyday spaces. I let paint be paint, indicating an impression of a space or objects, in areas where representation breaks down. Simultaneously there are moments of representational detail that ground us and hold the painting together, driving narrative within the space. These spaces are void of people, yet they are poised to be interacted with, like a film or theatre set. I see these paintings as filmic, snapshots suggestive of a wider space that exists beyond the confines of the frame. There is a sort of precise ambiguity that lingers as a result of how the paint exists.Try it!
