Revolution; View 1
Oil on canvas.
48"x54"
Revolution is not meant to be seen from only one angle, but to be turned periodically, as it was painted. Each view deals with space and presence differently.
The "revolution" its name refers to, however, is that of radical change, or states of being. What intrigued me about the exchanging observed forms- earth and water- was the way the normal qualities of each are also exchanged,with each wave- the water, when stilled, has a porous, hard,almost bone-like quality; while the sand, once bone, becomes translucent, ephemeral- fleeting.
