BOOK PAINTINGS

These are still lives of art books, arranged so that their images intersect and comment on each other. They are distorted and refracted through clear glass vases emblematic of the distorting lens of subjectivity. The images suggest the interaction between cultural attitudes and individual longings. They meditate on that space where society, art and desire meet.
