Landspaces: Artist's Statement
I call this show "Landspaces" as a result of a typo while trying to emit "landscapes." I immediately liked the result, and found the word I've been looking for since I put the show together. I think the name really fits because what I'm really doing is exploring the notion of space and spatial representation in a tw dimensional drawing. In a landspace we have constant three (four?) dimensional input from a multiplicity of sources. The view, the sounds, the smells, textures underfoot, all change subtly and dramatically as we move. There is a definining experience of space that is very difficult to describe, very difficult to translate and convey.
(... more words to come, hopefully :-)
