Acrylic and nails on canvas
The Statement Series is visually one of the most inconsistent series of my work. This was an experimental stage of my artistic career. I’ve made visual statements about life and society by using nails and collage. The nails represent pain, physical and mental. I also used repetition of images on paper. All of this was combined with painting that tends to smear and run down the canvas. I enjoy the physical act of smudging the wet acrylic paint and putting nails through materials.
