Mere ‘I’

2017 – 2019, Plainfield, NJ, Tampa, FL

Authenticity has been a driving force in the development of this work. I paint ambidextrously, working with both hands, using my right hand for clarity and definition and my left to avoid studied strokes and lines and elicit a more authentic mark. An enduring goal of mine has been to bring forth what is essential, what captures my truest identity. In the process, I have learned that identity is not fixed but rather blossoms out of a core seed that establishes me. This series of works started with a desire to find Mere ‘I,’ a term characterized by the Prasangika School of Buddhism.
