Spatial Paintings. 2021-2023
My post-pandemic works, in response to urgent, and turbulent global conditions, have become more painterly and dimensional. These sculptural wall constructions echoing natural and disruptive processes evoke metaphysical states of being that address a broad range of humanistic, political, and environmental concerns beneath their seductive colorful surfaces.
All works pictured below are mixed media sculptural wall constructions created from various combinations of plexiglas, birch plywood, adhesive gels, Mylar, acrylic paint and mediums, urethane, with found, up-cycled and repurposed items—mined from my studio and beyond.
Dimensions vary with lighting conditions and therefore artworks often transform with each installation.
