Is Going to Sugarman-Petersen Gallery and Santa Fe from June 2 - 26.2023. It is a wonderful place - so I am so happy for my painting!
This is a game of sizes - as we keep reiterating that it's not merely the size that matters in the grand scheme of things. However, in certain contexts, the notion of size takes on a significant role, influencing perceptions and outcomes in ways we often overlook. It is also a game of the impossible, prompting us to ponder the boundaries of what is achievable. What exactly is possible to do within the confines of our imagination and reality? In my explorations, I stumbled upon my elegant dancer - the Glossy Ibis - gracefully residing in Australia, a creature that embodies both beauty and fluidity in motion. The question arises: Is it truly possible to balance on a giant strawberry? This whimsical image conjures thoughts of a fruit that traditionally symbolizes purity and sensuality, merging the playful with the profound. A giant strawberry, oversized and fantastical, serves as a platform for creativity and imagination, challenging our perceptions of balance and stability. It invites us to delve deeper into the humor inherent in such an idea, encouraging us to embrace the absurdity of the situation. As I reflect on this surreal scenario, I find myself drawn to the layers of meaning that can be extracted from the juxtaposition of the delicate Glossy Ibis and the exaggerated, vibrant strawberry. The interplay between the elegance of the bird and the playful nature of the fruit creates a rich tapestry of imagery that speaks to the heart of our human experience. In this game of sizes and the impossible, we are reminded that there is beauty in the unexpected, and that humor often lies in the most unlikely of places. Thus, the exploration of these themes opens up a dialogue about the nature of existence, creativity, and the playful spirit that resides within us all.
