This exhibition is a meditation on two pigments, yellow ochre found in the yard around my current place of residence and red iron oxide, the pigment that gives swaths of earth a deep red color in Virginia and elsewhere. These two pigments are essentially variations on iron-rich rocks that have been used since the beginning of human history to communicate, to signal, long before complex language was formed. Red iron oxide derives it color from the mineral hematite, whose name is derived from the ancient Greek word hema, meaning blood.
The focus on two ochre pigments in this series of watercolors allows me to explore the potency found in the conversations between elemental geometric forms. The colors and shapes in these pieces speak to the body and sensuality, as well as the architectural forms of doorways and arches. This past year has seen me exploring and rooting into an expanded idea of home like never before, one encompassing the earth, plants and nature’s cycles as they unfold around me. The body, vessel, and home are symbolically revealed through these works.
