“Hot Summer Night” - Enamel on double plexiglass panel construction; OFF-SET. Centre curvilinear split, 52” x 28”
My work has been described as ‘ where Jackson Pollock left off..’ Drippings and dribbling, the cavalier pouring and splashing onto the canvas, the unmistakable layering. Considered a philosophical painter, the work espouses life-affirming energy. The imagery regales the song of the universe, the soul of the spheres. My use of enamel paint gives a powerful vibrancy to the work as I tell my stories. Stories that relate to the urgency of modernity to rein-form itself to its interconnection to the cosmos.
“Marine Melody” Enamel on plexiglass; additional curvilinear panel on right with vertical band of crystal, 30”x48”
The layering of the plexiglass panels, all splattered and dripped upon, addresses this very concern. Concepts of reflection, deflection, memory, distortion, association, disassociation. The interplay, intermingling of the lines, shapes, shadows that change constantly are all dependent on the vagaries of light, just as the self changes and evolves, as it responds to the varying externalities. A sense of wonder is created in the work as it becomes a suggestive process in attaining a certain sentience. A sense of beauty, a notion of harmony. All of which are essential for the fulfillment of humanity.
