Artist Statement: My interest in pure color and geometric shapes has been an overarching theme in the many artistic pursuits I have undertaken in my career. From my first years as a fashion designer, I gravitated to painting and sculpture. Abstraction, geometry, shape and color have always been at the core of my work. The paintings in this exhibit, from 1979 to the early 80s, are based on the rectangle. I was influenced by Albers and Rothko, Mondrian and Bolotowsky. I loved the experimentation and simplicity of Albers work in examining the juxtaposition of two colors vibrating off each other. His work was more cerebral, more controlled than mine; Rothko's more passionate and emotional and Mondrian and Bolotowsky, more linear and graphic. I endeavored to create work in response to these Masters, by using my own color palette, adding personal symbols and hieroglyphics to animate and create a conversation on the canvas. Later in the series, I tested the addition of glitter, adding texture and playfulness to the paintings.
