THE city
2008-2019
In this collection of paintings, I explore the city by making a painted version of my collage work. I use the cut-up / cut-out esthetic of my paper collages and translate the information there. When working for a particular end, the actions over the plane of representation are methodic, slow and controlling. The idea or end-goal takes over, and in a way reduces the act of painting to a structural fill-in -the-blanc.
