Infinity Painting

The paintings I create are expressions of gestural spontaneity and formal deconstruction of the canvas. I’m most interested in each moment or fragment of the canvas being a sensation of losing or finding oneself in a space of metaphysical or existential sub-consciousness. My practice is devoted to studying the body’s movement or layout beyond the conventional pictorial planes, defined by layer upon layer of paint. The act of painting, as I know, is reflected and studied through metaphysical instances of existence and absence, and questions the sensations we feel as humans through color and form. I like to critique relevant cultural discourse such as consciousness, sensations, stereotypes, clichés, rhetorical statements, ideals and beauty in my paintings. The figurative-abstract or “fabstract” style is a deconstruction of still and moving figurative renderings. I feel that through abstracting the figure, I am distorting the lens of normality much like these discourses abstract our perception of normal.
