Figure Ground

This is a fundamental concept in painting. It addresses the question of perception. How does the viewer see a two-dimensional surface? Color, shape, scale, density, and placement are among the ways a painting reveals its making. Since 2009, this concept has dominated my painting practice, not always successfully. But it is the visual game that led me to a spatial concept that felt adequate to match the shaky ground of this new century we live in.
