My purpose is to generate emotions and thinking through the process of resistance. Batik is created with wax and interfering shapes that prevent dyes from penetrating the medium of choice. When dyes spill outside these “resists”, intended and unintended images come to life.When we resist popular thoughts, labour, emotions, we initially focus upon a desired outcome. In fact, it’s the intangible process that offers us value in growth and life. It is this unexpected energy and promise of a new adventure, which drives me on a daily basis.
After Before. This is a new series reflected upon life with my little dog who died unexpectantly on August 6th. The space to the left before the image, is meant to represent the darkness of life since her passing, but with reflection, the eye moves towards the shape and we are reminded of her bright and complicated one-year old life.
