VIEW IN MY ROOM
This series is an approach to landscape painting in the context of our relationship to the natural environment and the mediating technologies that shape our perception of it. The automobile becomes central as symbol of the car culture here in California. Landscape as a reflection on the quintessential American artifact conveys the idea of image within image, of the profound residing within the banal, the sublime within the seductive artificiality of chrome and lacquer. The image explores the nature of seeing, of how the car, as fetish, seduces vision and contributes to cultural blindness and dislocation, as expressed by the abstract space that the car resides in, an indeterminate plane. This painting was executed with a pure "glazing" technique. Multiple transparent layers of paint are build up on the canvas. As light penetrates the transparent layers and reflects off the white of the canvas below, it produces a visual glow similar to stained glass. The canvas is stretched over wood panel to facilitate the glazing process and also provides more rigidity and protects the back of the canvas.
