These works reflect an interest in describing simultaneous locations/positionings and in multiplying the point of view to make relative its importance\, possib ly to disintegrate it entirely. The physical process of making\,聽in which an homage to Jack Whitten is implicit\, yields an ambiguity that I conside r the proper medium of my work. Source-images come from the three cultural environments that contribute to my flaky sense of identity (Romanian\, No rth American\, and Indian)\; issues of memory\, history\, identity\, absen ce\, transience\, and discontinuity appear in and motivate the work. I am interested in layering because it encapsulates time and is ambiguous in it s oscillation between revealing and obscuring. The visual accumulation com es from and addresses an awareness of the perpetual re-orientation\, re-in terpretation (including self re-interpretation) that is typical of the imm igrant experience I belong to. The canvas\, as well as what happens on it\ , becomes a space without place that reveals meaning only when set in moti on\, shifting from one thing to another.\nEvent Webpage: https://liberal-a rts.wright.edu/art-galleries/aerial-roots-95096 DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210823T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211001T235559 LAST-MODIFIED:20210908T202539Z LOCATION:Robert and Elaine Stein Galleries SUMMARY:Aerial Roots URL;TYPE=URI:/events/aerial-roots END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
