About The Artwork
This series of paintings is inspired by archetypal mid-century advertisements for motels, diners, bowling alleys, drive-ins, cocktail lounges, breakfast joints and cowboy bars. Originating from authentic neon signs of the 1950’s, each painting is a mash-up of classic Americana, kitsch, mid-century design motifs such as boomerangs and atomic stars. Wrung through my own imagination they eventually emerge as icons newly created. Part documentary, part fantasy, the signs are constructed intuitively, unscathed and protected as cardboard furniture is in a child’s doll house. Glamorized on their pedestals, these cherished objects of romanticized memory are surrounded by the murky darkness of passing time, strangely abandoned, yet brilliantly alive.
