Curator’s Comment:
I personally find The Eyes Have It as well as your series of outsized eyeball paintings fantastically seductive in color and texture, but equally disturbing in subject/context. While formally it can be difficult to draw emphasis away from such a strong focal point, the ropey and veined lines connecting the eye to the syringes create pooling areas of visual interest. The eye itself delights in saturated blue-greens and yellow ochre. It’s evocative of the earth itself, or a prized marble. Even the downward pulling lid with scraggly lashes envelops the center with pink and purplish liquidity. I see the spiraled circular shape just below the eye as a secondary oculus- hypnotic in its centrally positioned spiral. The symmetry is also suggestive of a stacked totem, or iconic reliquary. While treated as precious, the secular subject is far from the sacrosanct or revered.
From NY to the U.K., the most comprehensive and respected source for income & exhibition opportunities.
