Examine the Past, Create the Future: About My Exhibition
“Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth.”
– Picasso.
In the ‘90’s I changed my art practice from primarily landscape painting to art that referenced our society. Issues that I found troubling have not been resolved. Many have worsened.
My current work is a continuation of that exploration. It is my task to present issues in a way that is straightforward. I am addressing the general population as well as the art community.
“An artist’s duty, as far as I’m concerned, is to reflect the times.”
– Nina Simone.
