Underwater Noises
Boston, Massachusetts - "Researchers say increasing amounts of underwater noise, largely from shipping traffic, are enveloping rare right whales in "acoustic smog" that makes it harder for them to communicate."
(Associated Press/ The Hartford Courant October 2012)
There is so much visual noise in this world constantly bombarding all of our senses. As an abstract painter I start out with a specific plan or idea only to arrive at a place in the process that was not my original intention. This place doesn't feel right or familiar to me. I am not sure how to proceed and things become murky and unclear, like being underwater in a vast and unknown ocean. It is at this point that I know I need to slow down, look, and listen. Sometimes intentions shift and change over time. One thing leads to another and you find yourself in a very different place than you had intended. Over time I have come to trust the unknown ad unfamiliar places. These uneasy moments connect me with stillness and spaciousness.
