Gabs sits at a crystal ball. Dreams of things like horses - a Chagall inspired circus pony - a playful nod to her childhood and her rich imagination. She contemplates things ahead... the crystal ball shows future things - good things and hard things, seeds of growth. An angel over her shoulder helps her navigate her passage, and brings her light and comfort.
These pieces hang as a unit and they can also be broken up. Whether it's collecting one piece or a cluster of pieces from the series, the collector is still immersed in an ongoing narrative and a connected narrative.
I am interested in memory and connection.
CONNECTING THE DOTS- a series of 100 pieces –began as a triptych that evolved into 60 or so interconnected pieces. I have a sense it will be completed at 100 interconnected pieces. When I started this project, I was intent on painting a narrative that says something about connection. I am interested in the delicate little fibers that bridge together, people, places and things. Sometimes these are the subtle and unspoken transitional moments in life somewhere between memory and self, memory and place, memory and people.
In this series, connection and memory is abstracted and fragmented in moments, and at other times discernible or concrete even.
