Dialog, as an exhibition discusses the connection between the physical body and the emotional body. By the physical body I am speaking of muscles, organs and overall health and by emotional body, my thoughts, feelings, mental anxieties and fears. Created in an intense emotional state, the series evolved from a collection of moments of uncertainty. In the creation process of the work I am searching for a resolution and an understanding of these experiences and relationships. Through working on my art I become more aware of how these experiences are impacting both my physical and or emotional body.
I am connecting the mediums of painting and sculpture through the thematic discourse of Dialog rather than stylistically. This choice to speak in a minimalist vocabulary through sculpture and an expressive, figurative style of painting is to highlight the dichotomy and tensions in my search for resolve.
