It’s not ordinary.
Being able to exhibit original artwork to an international audience in unreal time and unreal space, is not ordinary.
So before you venture forth into the extraordinary I might ask you;
to remember that you are seeing these paintings in fascinating, but very limiting circumstances. This is by no means an excuse, to the contrary, it is an invitation to become aware of what is real and what is more, or less, than real.
Be aware that you can’t smell this work, you can’t touch it, you can’t walk around it, you can’t taste it (if you may be so inclined), you can’t engage with the life size and space granted the subjects and you can’t hear your own footsteps fall as you move from one work to the next. Imagine for a moment that what you’re seeing here are not paintings. These are illusions. Extracted from the real, yet estranged from all but one of your senses and missing, in this form, the essential experience that makes them everything a painting should be.
These paintings are birds in the bush. Art is something that should be touched, smelled and approached from all accessible angles. As an artist I am far too techno-attached to be righteous in any assertion that technological interdependence may separate us from engaging the senses we need to sustain humanity; that it may separate us from each other.
If you enjoy this site and this work I hope you take from here the urge to find a real live gallery, a studio, an artist, or simply another human being and have an experience worth being human for.
