ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE PSYCHE

​

The multi-layered palette knife works of this cycle manifest the autonomy and visual presence of deep psychological structures. Layer by layer, the material is applied, condensed, and uncovered once more to transform human constructions of the ego. The interplay of powerful color and the embedded, absolutely placed line captures contradictory facets of the self and brings them together. Each work thus reflects the liberating process of transferring rigid psychological dictates into an open, living interplay within primal trust.
