The original painting was created in May 2017 in Yogyakarta, Java, Indonesia. Acrylic on Bandung Canvas, Stretched on High Quality Upper Canada Stretcher Bars, with Hanging Wire. Influenced by Javanese Kejawan idea of other self, the inner self which is connected to the universe. A balance must be maintained maintained between this and the self of the material world. I have been traveling to Asia since 2005. During these trips, I gathered audio recordings of environments and folk music, as well as making drawings, photographs, and videos. These gatherings culminated in a series of audio compositional pieces, and an ongoing body of paintings, which were initiated in 2008. I am curious and enjoy gathering and sharing what I find interesting with others, and prefer to see my life’s creative output as merely manifestations made on a path. My painting process includes the layering and alteration of designs & colors (which were seen during these travels), combining traditional, contemporary, and commercial imagery with the occasional reproduction of a sourced drawing or photo. They are combinations, altered appropriative collages, improvisations. Embodied also is my fascination with the romantic view of tropical regions and their beauty, and the mystical practices and energies which occur in these places. I allow for an open ended-ness in the result of my paintings. They are made in a spontaneous manner, worked to compositionally resolve, but also to allow for unplanned results. Appreciation for the unique mental spaces created by experimental composition and improvised music informs my visual work. The head form in this series is intended to represent our connection with the physical plane…the body in which we inhabit, our inner being; the ego, outer and inner self. The possible idea that the being and self are merely constructs which do not exist, our physical being a portal and part of the cosmic, the concept that there is no “I”. If perhaps our connection to reality, and for that matter reality itself, is created by our language; then maybe if one believes or accepts something new; it does already it exist, and it has been discovered.
