Truthseeker
Lino Cut and Collage (38" X 24")
A heroic figure consults his own reflection in what might be a magic mirror, a shield, or a plate while behind his head hover eddy like spirals which suggest galaxies. They seem to simulate the whirling of his thoughts. This linocut and collage work combines cutting and rubbing techniques for a unique look that echoes ancient Greek pottery and also looks forward to neo-cubist, Deco design. The combination of Ars Nova, Ars Antiqua is mixed with modernist preoccupations with the self and how our deepest thoughts reflect the energy and patterns of nature.
