Memories do not exist solely on their own; they are persistently entwined with the physical places where they occurred. In my paintings, fragments of landscape and abstracted architecture stand in for everything I have lived through in those places. My art depicts multiple locations simultaneously to convey the impact and accumulation of identity-shaping experiences.
This painting has a lot of value contrast, and I chose the title, “Against the Dying of the Light”, to reference that contrast. The reason that we’re able to see/appreciate the light areas is because of the dark that they’re next to. Even though dark sometimes has a bad/gloomy connotation, without it, everything would feel the same. I think this applies to art compositions AND experiences in our lives.
