The Oracles of Time
How might we reconsider our experience of time, both singularly and as a community, from the past, through the present, and speculatively into the future? Who might listen and aid us in communicating our thoughts, fears, and desires?
oracle noun or·a·cle | \ ˈȯr-ə-kəl
1a a person (such as a priestess of ancient Greece) through whom a deity is
believed to speak
b a shrine in which a deity reveals hidden knowledge or the divine purpose
through such a person
2a a person giving wise or authoritative decisions or opinions
b an authoritative or wise expression or answer
Each painting in The Oracles of Time series represents a unique and yet familiar singular role. Whether it is The Sentinel, ever watchful, or The Wayfarer, always on the move, each offers a different possibility for reconsidering our understanding of time and our place within it. As a collection, these abstract paintings engage with the viewer to collectively shift our understanding of how time is segmented, layered, and communicated.
Infinite Space
The Infinite Space series is a collection of acrylic paintings in the round. Each work operates as a portal into the past and shares the story of a uniquely imagined celestial body. The paintings can be displayed individually or together, some smaller works can act as satellites to the larger portals.
These celestial bodies are speculatively imagined through a range of diverse colours and textures to emphasize their individual characteristics. In particular, their unique topographical features are celebrated with a luminescence that shines bright even all these years into the future.
Inner Depths
Bright, glorious neon colours are juxtaposed atop the soft staining of unprimed canvas. The method of staining allows for the colour to absorb deep into the weave, and provides a surface on which to build these countless layers.
