Greetings, I'm happy to submit these images of new paintings, featured in the recent exhibition, "Sightings", at the Sun Valley Museum of Art in Ketchum, ID. Both the Self-fulfilling Prophecy and Domestic Visitation series consider the unique period of lockdowns, social distancing, and isolation brought on by the pandemic mixed with a general fear of the unknown. Many faced additional anxieties brought on by information fatigue, and rising social and political divisions throughout our communities. These paintings share a domestic perspective, but contrast between a more pictorial representation of suburban longing and desire with a more tactile, yet photographic, wall-hanging. Combining fabric-dyeing and photograms (from UFO photos), the Domestic Visitation series blends a bohemian mundanity with a vision of the uncanny.
