About the Item
The implied act of opening the boxes, releases the energy of the occupants, allowing
them to take flight. The people and objects confined within, through the simple act of
unfolding, are exposed revealing what was previously hidden.
Acrobats, circus performers, and divers come flying out of the opened boxes, all
performing daring acts that most people would be hesitant to perform, but we find them
exhilarating to observe. I try to convey excitement, and energy in images that are
playful, expressive, and nostalgically bring the viewer back to the joyful moments of
anticipation felt in childhood.
The sense of nostalgia evoked in the graphic synthesis of these images is augmented
through the use of a wash of warm sepia tones that permeate the images. There is also
a visual correlation between inhabitants of the boxes and the boxes themselves. The
folds of the boxes having a quality not unlike origami, is reflected in the contortionist-like
bending of the human forms within.
