Play these two simultaneously....
Part 1 reveals the beginning of a series of three paintings. They each share two of the three prints made from gestural marks, divided down the middle. Up till this point, the gestural marks that defined the contours of the bodies existed on the same surface. So I wanted to show the printing process rather than a folding and pleating process. When watching this video, I thought it would be interesting to play simultaneously with Tryptic: part 2 to get the bookends of my painting process.
Part 2 retraces the same approximate shots of Tryptic: part 1, but after the works are in their finishing stages. With some added Cash

Quarry: Weight and Repetition. A Perspective on a Horizontal Plane
A self-filmed, site specific video based on the body's interaction with the materials in a quarry outside of Providence. Through the perspective of the camera, the objects must be placed in a non-rectilinear geometry in order to complete the square within the distortion of the camera's lens. Only through the body's struggle or easy taken with the stones, which where extracted from the site, can weight and depth be perceived.
