Hudson, NY - based artist Jason Middlebrook. Middlebrook takes inspiration from lived experience and the natural world with his signature hardwood paintings. Familiar yet enigmatic, the sky in its various forms serves as muse in "Skies." Never the same twice, the sky is ever-changing, differing dramatically from place to place and throughout each day. At times seemingly benevolent and at others cruel, the vast sky is in constant diaphanous conversation with the landscape and activity below. Middlebrook’s signature “canvas” of polished cross...

Kinetic Minimalism of the Light “Rimele went even further; in his installations, he studied the laws of colour reflections and shadows with care and thus created magical new worlds in which materiality intertwines with their coloured shadowed dematerialisation.” Dr. Jure Mikuž December, 2012 (in the book Oto Rimele. Spirituality of Material Absence, p. 28) In the past tradition of painting, only the frontal parts of paintings were always the carriers of the content. I broke this millennial tradition and focused my attention on applying colour onto the edges and the back of the painting. These parts of my painting compositions are hidden from the viewer's eye and are visible only indirectly – as reflections of the paint reflecting onto the wall area, addressing the viewer with their immaterial presence. This creates coloured light and coloured shadows, which change in the intensity of the coloured radiation in daylight. A single painting composition, however, does not show just one static image, but addresses the viewer with a multitude of images generated by the changing daylight throughout the day. The attentive observer experiences such kinetic pictorial images personally and as a complete mental (spiritual) experience. In the paintings of past periods, light is depicted only indirectly – as an “illuminator” of the materiality of the pictorial motif. For me, light itself is the central motif of painting exploration. In my luminous painting objects, however, I do not depict light, but create it. It is an actual, present light that communicates with the viewer as a living, moving part of the artistic message. In the series of fourteen images entitled Light and Ladder...

“The oval paintings give the feeling that somewhere in their essence, invisible to the human eye, there is a light source, which disperses the cleansed and superior light through the reflective whiteness of the wall into the space.” Dr. Nataša Smolič In this oval artwork color is present like the natural reflection of the painted canvas outside the painting surface at the paintings back. So, the source of colour isn′t any electric source. It happens naturally like a reflection on the wall. I′m researching this praenomen more than a two decades. A non-material reflection on the wall appears as a reflection of the painted object. And in daylight it changes all the time. You are kindly invited to see a video of that process on my homepage : video1 and video 2. On the back of the solid wood support panel there is intensive acrylic paint, which is only visible as a reflection of red color on the wall. I used oil paint for the front of the painting. The wooden panel of the picture was hand-shaped at the front into a slightly convex shape. . . . . .
