Abstract
Home/Sweet Home explores human presence and absence by calling attention to what is not there. This series of paintings explore the profound loneliness of abandoned interior spaces. Themes revolve around how an environment shapes a choice and how the individual shapes their environment. I incorporate motifs of windows and chairs to symbolize entry or a barrier to each space. Ambiguity is important within my paintings because I wish to ask open ended questions that may never find their answers.
