The pleasures of sight are elusive and unexpected. The pursuit of them drives us into the future.
In these paintings Japanese kitsch meets French rococo (with a nod to1970's Americana). Not as random or frivolous as it might sound, this particular deconstruction tentatively entitled "Living in the Pink and Green" is in service of an attempt to provide a place where, if the time is right, an eyeball will stop, go back, and proceed again. It is this freewheeling rogue eyeball that is so elusive and yet so enjoyable, which gives rise to the pleasures of sight.
My last paintings were abstracted television images, frame by frame. Television seems particularly apt, maybe even designed to move eyeballs. These paintings although still heavily influenced by television are actually landscapes or maps (topological landscapes).
