art explained
I want to push the implied space and create a visual dialogue between figurative depiction and non-figurative abstraction, exploring the surface/non-surface dialectic, taking the context as both picture plane and illusion.
Translation: I want to paint messy backgrounds behind things that look like what they are.
I want to explore the nature of reality and fiction within the context of the picture.
Translation: I want to paint things that look like what they are with paint that looks like paint.
I want to expose the reality of the mythic trick.
Translation: I don’t mind the drips.
I want to create a non-specific significance within the context of the picture.
Translation: I’m going to write on the picture.
