I love these images. They are detailed and nuanced. They are also fun, made up of the recognizable pieces of our modern built environment. They work at once as a purely formal experiment and as comment.
Form is inevitable in the visual arts. It is the language with which we, as artists, give voice to our ideas. Poetry and politics frames competing issues – at least for this artist. Poetry is something mysterious, that ultimately goes beyond words or forms to an un-nameable. Politics is the art of engaging in discourse and persuasion. This blog and the work within reveals a struggle.
