MOSAIKK
&
SCRAMBLED
EGGS
How a room can hold so many emotions and feelings that these abstract experiences somehow expand beyond its walls. A room can contain such deep personal stories that they seem to fill it to the brim. It carries that weight until it can no longer hold it, and then it bursts outward into another room, then another, then another.

MOSAIC AND 6 SCRAMBLED EGGS
THE PAINTING IS A BROAD LANDSCAPE. WHICH ACTUALLY STARTED AS AN ILLUSTRATION OF THE WATER CYCLER OF MY TEARS. THIS IS AN EXISTENTIAL SELF-PORTRAIT WHERE I AM CRYING AND NOURISHING MYSELF IN THAT CYCLE. WHEN YOU TILT THE PAINTING TO THE RIGHT VERTICAL, YOU SEE THE PERSON AND THE HAND RESTING ON HER THINKING CHIN.
THIS IS MOSAIC AND 6 SCRAMBLED EGGS WHERE LITERALLY EVERYTHING BREAKS DOWN AND IN THAT VERY DESTRUCTION, IT DISSOLVES, FALLING INTO PLACE PERFECTLY, EXPANDING OUT OF THE PAINTING.
THIS IS A DEDICATION TO EVERYONE.
TO EVERYTHING.
ALL THE STORIES COLLIDE.
TIME IS MORE FLUID THAN WE THINK. IDENTITIES ARE MORE FLUID THAN WE THINK. BEAUTY. CONVENTIONS. IDENTITIES. EVERYTHING. CHANGING IT’S SHAPE LIKE WATER. A REALLY VAST IMAGINATION
IT IS PROBABLY NO COINCIDENCE THAT THE WORD SPACE APPLIES TO BOTH, TO A ROOM INSIDE A HOUSE AND TO THE VASTNESS OF OUTER SPACE. OUR ENORMOUS GALAXY. THIS IS AN EXPLOSION SETTLING PERFECTLY INTO PLACE. EXACTLY AS IT IS MEANT TO.
THE CROW’S NEST HOME STUDIO
MY NEXT STEP IS TO HAVE A SPACE WHERE I CAN TAKE MY CREATIVE PRACTICES TO NEW HEIGHTS. A STUDIO WHERE MY EQUIPMENT CAN REMAIN SET UP, WHERE UNFINISHED PAINTINGS WILL ALREADY BE WAITING ON THE WALLS AT ALL TIMES. I HAVE SPENT SEVERAL YEARS PLANNING TO OPEN AN ART CAFE. THE CAFE ITSELF WILL BE A WORK OF ART, BUILT FROM RECLAIMED MATERIALS, MOSAICS, BOTTLES, AND, ALL KINDS OF RANDOM SHIT. LIKE A CROW’S NEST. IT WILL PROVIDE A SPACE WHERE MUSICIANS, THINKERS, CREATORS, WRITERS AND EXPRESSIONISTS CAN COME TOGETHER AND GATHER IN BRAINSTORMING AND CREATION. IT IS THE SPACE FOR THEM TO BUILD UPON ONE ANOTHER’S IDEAS, PHILOSOPHIES, AND MELODIES THROUGH INTRINSIC VALUE OF PLAY, ALL OVER A GOOD CUP OF COFFEE.
