If you turn this painting horizontally, you will see that it is an old plough, which I found rusting away in Brooksvale Park in Hamden, CT. Turning it vertically, this piece of old farm equipment becomes monumental and iconic. Rustbelt Reimagined invites us to view the decaying detritus of human industry as something reborn and alive. Curvilinear lines that form cogs and gears blur the distinction between realism and abstraction.
