6 PM 11-19-19: and today, while working on stage 1 of torente, (the title of this painting & the title of the entire new serie). so what will set it appart from motion series? having just completed the painted the sound of a flute series, i’m in a new space. it’s been emerging over the past month or two. it involves layering, as i’ve been doing over the past few years, creating images that reveal the entire process as just that: a process. without a clearly defined beginning of ending. a slice of life as it happens. we wake up, stuff happens, we go to sleep (more stuff happens). there are moments we remember. they are unpredictable. we can only predict that they will occur. even if you were in solitary confinement, or perhaps especially, there are those moments that will stay with you. that you may write about. there are flashes of light. ah, yes, flashes of light. LIGHT!
they are there, in the evolution of our species; in the flashes of future vision of a species decimated, a planet in extreme distress. more soon….
