LIGHT AND MEMORY
Through the illusion of light, color, and space in
a painting, I try to reveal the unreality of appearances.
The enigma of light and memory is the theme which absorbs me.
Light and memory affect the landscape of the mind as well
as the vanishing landscape of nature. In the moment when
light and color meet, reality seems distorted. The light
becomes fragmented as reality and dreams come together.
The sudden lucidity of the afternoon light glances
off figures and architecture awakening momentary sensations
of distant emotions. The haunting of the soul…recalls
longing, remorse, contentment. The mood lingers until
the landscape calms and darkens with the dusk.
