Musical
Interpretations Series
I consider the pulp
painting process a language of self-expression.
The body of work
Palpable l'mpalpable series began with a desire to explore
the possibilities of an organic medium such as pulp. My creative approach
is very similar to composing music. My notes are memories of my life
experiences, explanations of where I am and where I have been. I attempt
to observe the moments and record what makes them uniquely mine.
Pulp painting on
canvas is a process of composing a memory of body vibrations. Similar
to oral music and storytelling: fluid, always changing and evolving
into something new.
I consider my body
as an instrument. My abstract forms follow my respiratory circle, my
hand wavelike motion in a state of conscious and unconscious. By accentuating
shapes and structures I like to concentrate on the music spatiality
and fluidity. Dried pulp is a recorded note and aid for remembering
an idea, a life experience or a state of body-mind-spirit.
