Gathering Painting

My paintings from 2013 were the first to tackle personal and social identity as a theme, dealing with the ideas of ethnicity and collective memory in the midst of the globalization era. Splatters of poured color conjure up abstractized human silhouettes, sometimes hinting at a feeling of communion and other times at an attitude of rejection or remembered violence. The presence of details of their clothing (folk costumes) contrasts with the lack of specific identity of their erased, censored, hazy, or turned away faces. The characters I have created do not wish to state anything precise, but rather to allude to an atmosphere of uncertainty and mystery - recovering important human sensations and memories while losing some of your identity in favor of a group identity. The overall use of color conveys a positive attitude, while the process and technique itself speak of an ever-changing world and unexpected conclusions.
