Solo show

Over the years I have worked with various media including oil paint, wax, latex, porcelain, felt, cloth, hair, thread, and zippers. My paintings are mainly in oil but include layers of collage material and beeswax.

These paintings document the past four years of my life in my own abstract way. In 2003, I made the commitment to have children, which also meant putting oil painting on hold. My body was not my own for four years as I gave birth to and nursed my two children, Gigi and Nico. As of June 15th of this year, I have finally begun to paint again.

If I had to put words to my imagery I would say organic, swinging, sucking, stretching, repetitive, bodily, thick, light, soft, vaginal, and bulbous. I lean towards using glossy reds since it is one of the most powerful colors, meaning that you would never use it for your dining room - it's for conveying a sense of the body. I start somewhere and I add and edit until I feel personally closer to the painting, as you would a good friend or a lover. Lucy Mink
