Listening to the Rain
Jan 13-Feb 25 2023

AIDA SULCS gallery show poster - painting and drawing of hands and eggs

I cut my teeth as a freelance illustrator.  I developed muscle as an artist in education.  I lost my way in a residency.  I discovered my spine listening to the rain.  

SHOW STATEMENT

This work is a collection of short stories about humanity.

the egg is an invitation for relationship

listening begs earnest attention

rain is the almost invisible present 

and the human figure is a vessel for our humanity.

There is  a re-occurring rhythm of attachment, rupture and re-attachment.  It occurs in the subject matter as well as in the style through the coupling of spontaneity and intention in the marks.

I often travel through uncomfortable terrain to visit histories and contemplate systems of behaviour.

I experiment with forms of expression  - poetic and humorous, so the viewer can feel safe to jump in and contemplate too.
