What's more interesting than to be an artist that teaches rather than advocates? I'd like to show you how I got from one to two to three in a way I cannot explain with words, although words aren't void of insight. The poetry of my work is the road I live on with my muse. It takes me to a never ending destination. I'm always exploring and I rarely rest on a solution. None of these pieces are my best or favorite. They are pit stops to a never ending journey of exploration. My mind and intuition about whom I live with continues to a new place with little rest. The things I show give you a one percent look into the unfolding aspect of my sub conscience.
I chose many layers for intense depth. It enlightens chaos with a surprising formalistic discovery. The colors give meaning to human color, nature's colors and a deeper understanding of the color beige. The largest human body part is put under a microscope and compared to others. Geometric shapes aligned intentionally exude a shapely form. Hidden messages code humor. The title of the show gives a word-play element. The value of skin color brings about some uncomfortable emotions due to the geography we are located. And finally, the use of picking a certain look and expanding on it in front of the viewers eyes makes the artist vulnerable but issues the viewer a back stage pass.
Anthropologist viewpoint on skin: TBD
