Cloudscapes

This series of paintings examines the relationship between the individual and the collective in contemporary communication. The cloud is used as a metaphor for both separate and shared consciousness—in particular, how we find connection with others in this age of hyper-communication yet increased isolation. Using handmade paints juxtaposed with mass-produced acrylic house paint, the artist meditates on what ties us to the past, what reassures us of a worthwhile present, and what guides us to a meaningful future.
