Painting, Oil on Canvas
Size: 36 W x 36 H x 1 D in
Originally titled, “Don’t Leave.” This painting is about loss. I had intended for this to have a feeling of suspension, like floating under water. I could have gone in several directions because there are so many ways to express sadness and pain. I reworked the painting twice and spent too much time thinking about mood and feeling when what I should have been looking for was the truth - loss is a kind of transformation. Everything in this Universe, including the Universe itself, goes through phases. The Earth has seasons, it breathes in winter and exhales summer. We are not different, regardless of what anyone says. There’s solace and beauty in that, there’s also pain but, also joy, because it’s connected – it’s all one thing. We can’t often see it because we’re too involved with only one part of the whole and it’s easy to focus on just one phase. Time, usually gives us the distance we need to achieve the perspective to see things as they really are.

Statement: What is human, if not a catalyst to express the abstract form. There is a type of transcendence that occurs in Art, an almost contradictory hypnotic state of awareness. The existence of that intimate relationship between a painting and its viewer is fundamental, the obscure and imperceptible language that is only recognized by each individual, my mother would say, “ I know what I like.” There is an intentional evasiveness in my work, these are the things that are implied. When figures and nature are more about shapes and atmosphere they are reduced to emotion, this mood is their strength. Abstraction, by its very nature is disconnected and ambiguous, it’s this detachment from reality that allows it to become a middle ground for cognitive subject matter. Something familiar but not specific - a sense of place but from a separate reality. See more: http://www.ajvalero.com/about-3/
