Transfiguration 82 Painting

The works in the Transfiguration Series are inspired by memories--mental images of landscapes that are recalled, reimagined and transfigured as paintings. These views are constructed not based on the order they appear in visual reality, but rather after filtering through thought and memory. The works attempt to depict visual recall of a scene(s) in fragmented, abridged, and altered perceptions reconstituted in one image. Memories are often inaccurate and biased according to our beliefs, expectations and hopes, as well as our life experiences. How we process visual input is also affected by these personal characteristics. Ask two people to describe the exact same place they have both just visited and you will receive two differing descriptions regarding the details. What we recall, how we recall, and the hierarchy of importance are highly individualized. These works are relatively devoid of any concrete representation and are intended to hint at rather than specify for the viewer. Functioning as suggestion for thought or feeling, it is up to the viewer to come to their personal conclusions regarding meaning or paths to meaning. To generate meaning from a non-representational image demands a longer look, a reflection and projection of free thought and associations. They will likely mean something different for each viewer as it is only natural to bring to an image all personal experience and memory. However, it is the process of looking and analyzing your own wonderings that is in itself the message. Look, and look again.
