About the work:
A dusky painting work informed by
looking at exodus with ghosted figures in the open oceans
Found in desolate waters for their family as their only alternative.
Unnerved their small crafts float over schools of flapping stingrays
as they migrate away from worse horrors.
Pelicans glide in twos and threes.
Swoop in low and hover the surface in aerial waves.
Characters shift change from No-bodies who suffer the
alt rights of spring as icon that guard over us,
soaked in shade like Moai our Easter Island heads.
On over stuffed rafts in storms with rouge breakers
that thunder in from out of nowhere.
Cracks open the sky
Massive close-outs humble all before
crashing over in a rinse-cycle of mayhem.
Families float in and out of dangers
out of breadth briefly grasping a glimpse.
