The Skew Series riffs off the behavior of bending rings of light in Newton’s Rings. Each piece is a caricature, of a scene or interaction, being squeezed through a lens and split into continuous contorting colors. They are a meditation on distortions in perception caused by desire, ambition and unconscious schemas. The paint is hand-made with tempera, casein and pigments – on a ground of milk, sand and spit.
