Coming up in a random search of images this morning, I find the fresh vibrant color in this piece very appealing. (Work 1000A) The relationship between these high chroma pinks and oranges is a jarring visual contrast to the gray industrial construction.  The rectilinear boundaries within the picture frame serve as steps that move me vertically through the space, where I encounter the suspension of visual weight in the darker compartmentalized structure.  The shapes appear to be coal cars, or some other mechanized carrier.  While on the scale of my monitor it’s difficult to specifically interpret the grouping of portraits in the center, I’m intrigued by the windows within the grid and the graphic personas they represent.  The digitized surface of the flatter building plane is also of interest. The small rough nooks of the grey concrete morph into a smoother, almost liquefied facade.  I realize this piece was posted some years back, and would love to see what you’re doing now.
