My
work questions painting as a flat, immobile 2-D object.
For instance,
“Bolts of Blue” takes a painting from one wall
across the room to another.
The work also challenges the notion of
art as an immutable form. The pieces are created to
adapt to different contexts, influence and be influenced
by their surroundings. Thus, they can be re-configured;
or, like “Le Ballet Mechanique” —using
electronics, they can re-configure themselves.
Increasingly, such ideas have
necessitated working with collaborators —with
engineers for my individual works and with artists
around the world for my large-scale projects in
the guise of TransCultural
Exchange. These collaborations
have allowed me to expand my ideas of what defines
art itself.
