TO CATCH THE WIND
SECORD GALLERY, HALIFAX NS
JUNE 8 - JULY 7, 2019
“To Catch the Wind” is a melding of three painting strategies that have come together to form this exhibition. They include work from “A Gathering of Angels”, the “Holding” and “Moulin Rouge” series, and also the 2018 Floribunda series. “A Gathering of Angels” speaks to the abstracted essence of a spiritual being in transformational and transitory encounters. The objective being that the tool of paint application along with the manner and process of paint application informs the content of the paintings. The square paintings are part of the both the “Holding”/’Moulin Rouge” series and the Floribunda series. “To Catch the Wind” simplifies notions, and sensibilities of mark making into a cohesiveness of intent, paint application and implied meaning or interpretation.
