Dialogue with the Past
Painting can be understood as a dimension where the external world meets the internal, literally a skin that separates the physical body from the inner world of emotions, feelings and remembrance. The painted surface is where the meeting of these dimensions are expressed. In a similar way, fabric is the membrane that separates this world of external materiality with that of the interior dimensions of immateriality. The body is understood to be there, but is at the same time absent, and the image sets up a dialogue between physical/ephemeral, sensation/emotion, past/present.
