"Stick Man Wonders if He is Made of Light or Just Sticks"
"Stick Man Wonders if He is Made of Light or Just Sticks?"
26" x 44" (66 x 112 cm)
Oil on wood board
In this painting I creates a narrative that depicts the distinction between opacity and transparency. The work is composed of a field of flashlights and before each flashlight is a panel upon which is drawn a stick figure, held within the gauzy light of the painting. All of the stick figures are opaque except for the one in the center of the picture. This panel is transparent and the light from the flashlight shines through. The symbolism of light, which is a classical symbol of awakening and enlightenment, suggests the multidimensional nature of the human and is a theme that repeats throughout my work. For example, You can see references to light in “Shine”, and “Super Post Personal Person”.
