About The Artwork

The ninth of my Zoshoku experiment Phase 3. I continue to explore different patterns and textures of repetition in oil pastel, as well as venture into collage from 3-V. "Zoshoku (増殖)" is a Japanese term meaning growth and multiplication, especially of bacteria. We see, hear, touch, taste, and smell repetition everywhere around us and within ourselves - the veins under our skin, the blood cells circulating throughout our bodies, the bacteria that grows and multiplies under the microscope. Ordinary and extraordinary matter repeating itself on a constricted canvas and beyond in infinite space, concentrated, dispersed, rhythmic, and random motions. Repetition does not have a capacity and is ever-changing, metamorphosing into the unknown. It may not even take a defined shape - monotonous, dynamic, accidental or intentional, natural or artificial. I am also partly inspired by the Impressionist, Post-Impressionist movement and have started to explore Modern, Contemporary artists as well, Yayoi Kusama being one of them.

I am currently a graduate TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) student who has a lifelong passion to create and try out various mediums (colored pencil, acrylic, collage, multimedia), and aspires to integrate the Arts into teaching English to children around the world, hopefully in regions where access to education is limited. Here, I share part of my creative journey into a theme that I closely connect to. I explore repetition formerly using colored pencil, now with oil pastel and collage work. I also reflect on my Japanese American heritage, nature, and influences from my favorite Impressionist, Post-Impressionist artists. Artists I am greatly inspired by include Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Edouard Manet, Georges Seurat, Paul Signac, Richard E. Miller, Yayoi Kusama, and so many others.
