This aerial view of a festival reminds me of looking down upon grain and fruit fields from above. The painting is part of series that explores grids - expressing the complex and unexpected relationships of the smaller parts to the whole. I divided a collage into a contiguous arrangement of sections to use as reference. I painted the movement and vitality of the festival by playing whites against darks and adding dashes of vibrant color. William S. Lieberman, Metropolitan Museum of Art: "It's so nice to see something very and unabashedly happy." Barbara Haskell, Whitney Museum of Art: "I like the exuberant energy of this work and the detail. It's very inventive." |
