Detail

This work is a haunting of space, a half remembered moment, or gesture, made almost real again. The screens are ghostly, ethereal things, false memories handed down through stories, which shape our lives as our secret inheritance, the ones received when, hand pressed to heart, an aging relative exclaims how like her sister you became just then. This work is that moment where those invisible lives overlap with our own. Our personal palimpsests.

Working in darkness, the screens possess a fleetingness, a fragility, their images surrendered but not, intimate but not, personal, but universally familiar. The artist works in light, every thread meticulously drawn and painted into a suspended moment of transition, intertwining with the viewers own perception and memories to create a new instance that lingers with them long after their departure.
