My work explores my interest in the chaos and repetition of memories colliding within my thought process. The accumulation of oil and acrylic paint, pattern, and drawing on the paper is my idealized, visual list of pleasurable times and places. I use a variety of mediums and applications to express the multiplicity of moments that combine to form a memory. As I delve into my past, I enter into a vocabulary that borders on the real and imaginary, for memories are full of falsities. These falsities result in an invented land of abstraction. Through the scrapping and building of the surface, I leave numerous layers of paint visible in one moment. These physical layers of paint echo the conceptual layers of memories I am retrieving. |
