ARTIST STATEMENT
A deep taproot extends from my series of spot paintings (2012/13) to art school and long before adulthood–encompassing language colors and lettering of advertisements in my native English language (viewed since childhood), as well as to Asia, and language and color influences from my four expatriate years in the countries of Japan, India and China.
In art school, (Bachelor of Fines Arts degree from the California College of Arts in the San Francisco bay area, USA, including graduate studies) my paintings were always concerned with flatness. I studied textile design in studio practice, working in spots, repeating pattern and subverted pattern explored with a color theory and palette I continue to devised. Flatness and the orb are the focus of my Spot Series paintings of 2012/13, interests long before the article Contemporary Abstraction placed such concerns at the forefront of art. *

has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.
