Each painting comes from an encounter: from life, from a photograph, a drawing, from memory. Many spaces are at play and each of these spaces is left to vibrate in the truth and untruth of things. Tension hides in the space between us: in the looking, not touching. Desire consumes, shapes and marks me, my female gaze, moving in and out of abstraction. Paint is that mark, worked within a physical series of moves: on the wall and on the floor. Oscillating between subjectivity and objectivity, ambivalence is the driving force.
