~ Duet ~
In a quarantine state of mind, I wanted to practice being mindful, intentional & meditative in the act of how I lay paint down.
This work was born out of time in quarantine 2020, and realized into a series of 8 paintings in spring of 2021- which to me felt like a pivotal time of transitioning anew from the pandemic.
In the series ‘Duet’
Two colors are engaging in a conversation.
Each taking the stage, occupying space and playing an equal role in forming the composition, performing a duet.
Their duality and intersection creating evocative movement and flow as they interact with each other, suspended in space.
Their overlaps bringing to life an immense depth and character in the hues and textures of the layers that arise.
