Faces

Like the abstract impressionist painters from the 1940’s I am interested in asking questions about our relationships with our social spheres and the responsibilities to our environment. Early impressionist painters and sculptors believed that abstraction in portraits and disruption of patterns could encourage mental involvement and imagination to help answer these questions. I am interested in the visual conversations this creates and in the way that abstraction and distortions can be employed to express the psychological states we experience when asking these questions.
