“Influence”
Mixed Media
This series consists of five mixed media
works, each representing the emotions experienced during a different
encounter—a hug, a smile, holding hands, an unexpected hello, seeing something
beautiful—accompanied by a journal of the experience presented as a ghosted
image. The expressionless face, drawn over the Jackson Pollock-inspired works,
help to convey the idea that a person may not reveal their true emotions and
that under a seemingly calm face could be undisclosed desire, raw hatred or
unadulterated joy. Influence invites the viewer into my emotional experiences,
encouraging the viewer to examine their own.
