Intimacy
Intimacy
When we share experiences with others, the significance of the interaction is often distilled into intimate individual moments. The surrounding reality fades away and a single defining moment is left unnaturally clear in our memory. But what happens when those moments, those intimate memories lose their context? When others are forced into my version of intimate moments? Through larger than life detailed renderings I am entreating the viewer into my own intimate moments. Removed from a larger context, the image is reduced to a single defining character. This distillation leaves the viewer free to create their own context. To create a unique moment with the piece, and within the piece. A new experience completely separate from its originator, and formed by the viewer’s own past.
