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.
This is my most recent addition to the Incarnation series, completed at the beginning of July. Again I am dancing around the idea of people in the process of being created, in their incompleteness shaping and effecting one another. I was a little trepidatious as I began this painting because I knew the uterus would make some uncomfortable, but in the end I came to the conclusion that if I am painting a series that is intimately involved with the body, identity, and formation of the Self, I can't be shy about things like uteri. Such is life.
This second piece of my Incarnation series shows a progression towards corporeal or biological themes. One of my intentions with this series is to depict people in the process of being created. I believe we are spiritual beings who are "incorporated" into the physical world. This series represents a convergence of several elements that have been present in works I have done over the years: the skeleton, the body and biological processes, ethereal abstract lines, and the incorporation of trash into artwork.
