Artist Statement: "V Quinze: Les Détails" Series
During most of my life, I worked with fine antique furnishings. As an appraiser and restorer of antiques and decorative arts, I became intimate with the grains and living surfaces of wood. In most objects, I become acutely aware of the damage from use, warping from time and restorations from hundreds of years of care. It influences how I see the world. Beauty is no longer perfection, it is the imperfection of age.
I pursue the simplicity of line and am led to detailed abstractions. I explore line; I investigate the world of historic decorative arts and architecture. Decorative arts begin to open their stories to me and invite me to share them in a way not often seen or respected. I am rewarded for my listening with detailed abstractions and the texture of line which endlessly intrigues me.
