Salty & Sweet

collage, spray paint, colored pencil (diptych), 2013

27”h x 14.5”w (each), framed

Many of my collage works start off as a purely formalistic exercise. I’m looking only at composition, color, texture etc.  As the piece begins to grow, a narrative starts to form in my head. Salty & Sweet depicts two bright objects hovering above two figures crossing a barren landscape. I was intrigued with the dialogue and contract that happened not only between the two objects and the landscape, but with the strawberry and starfish as well. The works became about contrast: ripe and barren, decadence and humility, rich and poor, salty and sweet.
