| "monica (gazes)" P e t e r A l a n |
| Next |
| 2007, 40" x 30", mixed media on panel. "monica (gazes)" spawns from my "my space" continual series. While the piece has been about 10 paintings over past 3 years, it came into final fruition from an rigorous additive and reductive process. Subsequently, the rugged surface gives the viewer a pleasing physical texture; the graphite-drawn portrait of LA model/actress, Monica Ford provides a relatedness to a human condition and/or inherent experience. I see myself and many others carrying around a longing for something bigger. I see its about connecting and knowing. As there all glimpses of mirroring experiences, much of the experience settles into a beautiful sorrow and pensiveness to mark the time. |
