There are a series of 7 cups (six on mixed media paper and one 48×48 inch on canvas). I’ve used a mundane object that many of us use every day to help the viewer to relate to a shared experience, then turned it into something ‘other’ by color blocking and giving each of the cups a point on the bottom, changing the cups from useful vessels to unreliable objects.
But why? Because when we change our perceptions, we open our thinking and emotions to experience how the known becomes the unknown. This is the core of my work.
And you thought it was just a cup of coffee . . .
