These abstract works in ink emerge from a deep engagement with the playfulness of the creative process.
The physical act of making these panels is a delight of exploration: the building up of the textured gesso on the wooden panel, the architectural ink spilling from the pen to create an interplay of shifting shapes, the shapes themselves congregating into pattern and then proliferating into possibilities that spill off the panel.
The playfulness of the creation extends to those who appreciate these abstracts. The diptych and triptych blocks are interchangeable. Viewers have the tactile and imaginative pleasure of arranging – and rearranging – the panels to create a configuration that conveys their sense of the art in its living space.
All art is created by an interplay between the artist and its beholder. With this art, the art actually is transformed by its beholder.
