These works are personal reflections and abstract representations regarding the universality of forces, both human and natural, in terms of space, form and texture. They are composed on paper bags mounted on screens and painted using water soluble media and collage. While viewing this work, one can explore their own personal journey.
Paper bags with handles may represent two masses or forces in opposition, i.e., natural, human, societal, cultural, economic. Additionally, they can be seen as more personal struggles of coupling. Handles may bring to mind suitcases, things we carry or leave behind on our journey. Also they connote windows or doors which, open or close, symbols for arrival or departure, a beginning or end. The seam between the masses can be viewed as a bridge or transition between two worlds while screens beneath bags offer the possibility of a safety net or an obstacle.
