Art as transposition
Currently, I have three shows going. One is at the Laughing Moon Gallery, one at the Kelowna Public Library and another is in the Rotary Centre for the Arts, 421 Cawston Avenue, Kelowna. British Columbia.
I have changed my direction quite markedly in the past three years from enclosed images to non-representational explosions of architectural, graphic images. Feeling freer to let the image speak has lead to some place that has more power.
My current work entitiled Materialization: a study in transposition is an exploration of the alteration of images, of neighbourhoods, of the natural environment. We fail to see the everyday magic of a mundane object such as a candy-wrapper or a poinsettia leaf.
The consumer society is altering the environment by rapid construction which transposes the natural world into an altered state. We modify what is around us both in our perceptions of it and also by our interactions within the physical world.
Some of my images are on larger canvases and focus on how the urge for power is a reaction against our own inevitable death. It leads to the death of the natural environment...the construction of destruction. The world has become an alien place.
