Final Hurdles.
Closing in on dates, the work has become more apparent to me; as a series of pictures, based on local and memorized imagery, with an inquisitive view into the relationships that occur throughout the making, thinking and finishing of these pictures. There are still 4 paintings to finish, but its going to be interesting what happens to them now that I’ve made this statement, what’s interesting about these paintings and the past few months, has been the not knowing, the clueless, and the dim moments, because they keep me searching for some sort of truth, which is what I feel they have to a certain extent. I mean if you read into the semiotics and symbolism of the piece (at your own risk, I don’t subscribe to it that too much) then the work is so painfully idiosyncratic if you happen to know me, that it can’t help but be honest. I digress, seeing as I’ve made this realisation, I hope it wont be similar to the scenario when you’ve cut your leg, and can’t feel it until you roll your jeans up, meaning that now I know how simplistic by paintings actually are I’m worried the exploration or questions might become less prominent, which is important in my practice, I need to keep learning.
