О моей работе
О произведении:
The face is the simplest means of expressing a complex emotion. I create through a process I call iterative ideation, repetition of a motion many times in order to explore the possible variations. Individual ideations represent an instantaneous emotional state, but deeper meaning can be found in the differences within the progression. None of the paintings have titles because each represents an instant of pure emotion, which exists outside of language. To label a pure emotion with words would introduce outside associations that carry their own emotional connotations. My aim is to allow the emotion to speak for itself.
