Flotsam, Light Shaft in Pink
acrylic on cradled panel
Size: 36 x 36
“Flotsam, Light Shaft in Pink” presents an abstract narrative describing debris and light bouncing around an enigmatic water environment. The term “flotsam” speaks to a sense of the lost and found. Residing somewhere between landscape, figuration, and narrative, I present landscape elements in terms of parts that are disembodied and ready for arrangement. I like to play with their formal relationships, to jostle any sense of fixed placement. Forms that we might recognize as either shadow or structure become at once horizontal and vertical as they share the painted plane. A leaf can be both a figure in the landscape and a signal about decay. Shape becomes the result of withheld paint as well as applied.
