Paris nights


 

"Nudes, all women, outlined by the vibrance of color, as if illuminated by the neons of the boisterous City of Lights. Clues are dropped in each piece, a truth to be uncovered; a ghostly figure emerging from a muddle of chaos; maybe a forest? The delicate rendering of a female form in pastels on coarsened wood; are those drill holes? Culminating in Paris Nights, a woman with her back to the viewer, and, on her left, an ambiguous form reaching out; is it human?  Paris Nights is a tribute to the great masters as they brought to light the psychology and sexuality of their subjects in relation to their natural surroundings, as it is a study on the physicality of the body accentuated by the interplay of textures."
