Heads
Easily read as abstract plays of color and texture, the Heads are in fact a first step into content. The abstraction of “face” is the most basic of human languages, the foundation of religions, and the first and most common experience of recognition of signs. No matter the language we speak, our anthropomorphic instinct makes us see faces in the clouds, in the trees, makes us imbue the natural world with human content.
With these works, I’ve asked myself questions about the value and purpose of content by playing with the most primitive and minimal gesture into figuration I can.
