About the Item

oil on panel My current body of work is an investigation of the relationship between the tangible and intangible moments in the context of everyday life experience; where the tangible refers to moments taking place in the physical environment and the intangible refers to subjectivity associated with thought. In this body of work, I am using light and dark as a representation for the two-sided nature of experience, where light is tangible and the dark intangible. Pictorially, and spatially, the light and the dark have a cosignificant relationship, just as the tangible and intangible are reliant on one another to inform experience. Additionally, through the physical use of the material and isolation of shapes, it is my intention to take the viewer beyond just the image and to experience the paintings as objects. My process involves recording places that I am familiar with or that I interact with in my daily routines, such as a commute from one point to another or simply walking through my neighborhood. Through my process, I have found that it is during these times that the relationship between tangible and intangible is most evident. Singular moments in the physical space seem to punctuate and interrupt engagement in thought. In these paintings, it I not my intention to favor one aspect over the other, but instead to place equal significance on both.
