Social media has given us all the opportunity to craft an atmosphere of false vulnerability where we share the best of ourselves and our circumstances as if they are our every day truths. True vulnerability stays smothered underneath the veneer of styled images and stifled opinions. We suppress ourselves further; never allowing ourselves to figure out who we truly are or what we believe in. Meanwhile, we worship celebrities who make successful careers out of being the most unapologetically brave and heightened versions of themselves. They crank up the volume of who they are to a level that screams out their individuality while we beg for more and gain inspiration from it.
My recent abstract expressionist body of work enables bright, strange, and showy color combinations to strut their stuff. They are not sorry for who they are. They are bold, brave, fun, and demand to be the star of the show. They feature expressive, dancing brush strokes and mark-making that garner attention while singing out high energy.
Like peacocks that fan their tail feathers, these paintings also make chic proud statements that invite the viewer to be part of the entourage. Like high fashion, the paintings allow the collector to express and represent their deepest remarkable individualities on their own turf. They bring out our own fierce inner icons of showmanship; like Beyoncé, Tina Turner, David Bowie, Billie Eilish or Lizzo.
This work encourages viewers to reflect on their own vulnerabilities and empowers them to share more of their joy in who they are with the world; to step into their own star qualities and enjoy them while they can.
