In the past, I have been exploring the shapes and relationships of intersecting cellular shapes. The way in which they can be pressed and forced into each other as well as then the space left around them when in solitude as a point of comparison.
I have used these two weeks in residency to begin investigating the notion of islands as a jumping off point from previous work and their relationship to the cellular in shape and theory of isolation. It has also been a time to feel free to explore the use of color, infuse more emotion into the act of painting as well as the results, and to capture an idea and feeling with the paint.
After focusing on a certain density I am beginning to look for more spaciousness and freedom.
~Carol Miltimore
There is pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar.
I love not man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne’er express, yet cannot all conceal.
~Lord Bryon
The spaciousness and isolation, or lack there of, to be found in the solitude of cellular land masses floating in a sea of color.
