The abstract mind reflects an abstracted objectified world of nature as a means to be exploited. Abstraction through my figurative work allowed me to see with my mind deeper where I move my body through the abstract poses to bring out the power pose.
This art series interprets perception, a departure from our commitments to what we think is the norm, and goes into a deeper level of how we hold our bodies and the overall physical form of an individual. Posture can convey a wealth of information about how a person is feeling. Not just that. The specific pose hints at confidence, openness, or being submissive to live.
The stories behind the paintings signify the changes in one's life. When you lose your comfort zone, you are left with a blank canvas to paint your new story; to walk your walk, and not walk someone else's walk. Life reminds me of off-grid living, countryside living where things are rough, and you have to get up early to get things done. You know life is harsh like that, just in another perspective. But, we all need to wake up that morning to feed our own " cattle" to have other possibilities to survive.
All those poses and objects that I have painted or sculpted for this art series are synonyms for the powerful life one chooses to live.
I have been exploring the whole posture in a power pose, conveying one's determination to be a woman through a figurative art expression in oil paintings, wood, and air-dry clay.
