It's more interesting to have just a picture of a small detail -then you dream the rest around it. Because when you see the whole thing, what is there to imagine?
-Dries Van Noten
The intimate and the abstract can be one. Do I ever paint the whole? Or am I always painting moments? People respond to my work because they are allowed to imagine, and imagination is play. The edges and gestures and visible application of paint onto a surface -so that one never forgets one is looking at both a result as well as a process- these things are alive and visceral to me. Commentary will always be dated; I am interested in allowing for infinite possibility and interpretation.
