‘Views’ is a step more complex than ‘Frame’. The colors advance, and the shapes also move beyond pure symmetry. In ‘Views’ we can see echoes of colors in rectangles that don’t directly touch, like a story heard from two different people who don’t know one another directly. In this work, we can start to see how one might arrange the ‘windows’ of their life, relationships relegated to different sized slices.
ABOUT THE SERIES
Windows is a series about the coronavirus pandemic. The theme of this series is mediated contact — through the windows we saw each other in every day, and across the spaces we were required to keep between one another. These pieces aim to capture the sense of disconnection between days, experiences, and people, all see through colorful rectangles. The series doesn’t explore the impact of forced separation, but instead looks at how this space was kept: the self-imposed separation is represented by not using tape or masking fluid for these works. However, even though the rectangles don't touch, they still influence one another: colors appear across multiple rectangles, visualizing shared experiences and emotions.
