    BEES ON THE LOOSE.

    BEES ON THE LOOSE.

    Bees in a kaleidoscopic landscape. They are useful and busy – but also a frightening nuisance.

    UNMASKED DISRUPTED

    UNMASKED DISRUPTED

    One green and one yellowish eye, two pink nostrils, a red mouth and two insects as part of the eyes – an identity within a mask.

    BOUQUET ON CARPET

    BOUQUET ON CARPET

    This small experimental work is an important piece in my pursuit of a technique to express sensations. The three-dimensional flowers and the pink stem are entities randomly placed in an orderly patterned landscape. They disrupt the landscape and demand attention.

    FRINGED CARPETS

    FRINGED CARPETS

    In these small works with disrupted patterns I have added fringes, to transform pieces of painted paper into sensual objects.

    Fragmented redemption.

    Fragmented redemption.

    Layers which start out neat and orderly with a simple understandable pattern gradually become more fragmented. In the end, redemption is offered only through one holding on to that which lies in between the fragments.

    PEEPHOLE

    PEEPHOLE

    Curiosity/fear/fascination, sentiments which we experience in glimpses, understand in glimpses. My titles and works wander around the cracks and lines in between, catching glimpses and giving them a visual appearance in which they can be glimpsed yet again.

    EMBRACING

    EMBRACING

    The past couple of days I ventured down a path which led back to a previous idea and a previous title : Embracing – embracing the cracks and the lines in between.

    BIRDS AND TREES

    BIRDS AND TREES

    One tattered bird and one who appears as a blue mass integrated in the background behind floating trees. In both pieces I work with the softness and transparency given by the fiber structures.

    Birds on the loose and birds in the cage.

    Birds on the loose and birds in the cage.

    A week spent with paper, acrylics, fiber and birds both confined and free. We desire freedom but need some element of confinement to reach fulfillment and satisfaction in that quest.
